Great venue. And great space to host any event. Staff were accommodating to all our needs and made it all work to come together. Drinks prices and atmosphere were really good for being in Battersea.
The pricing of the food package is extremely high and over priced. A very small cheese platter for 30-40 people- no where near enough crackers and for the Price of £250 is insane. Definitely not worth the money

Drinks catering was great, the venue great, the staff very helpful and the way they set aside the space for the party was great.
There was a lack of clarity and inconsistent information about whether food would be available and when. In the end, food was not available, and we wish we had known that prior and during the party. Otherwise we would have ordered in, but were left hanging for some time when the messaging was unclear and staff could not confirm whether they could provide food or not. Please be more clear in your messaging prior and during about capacity of food delivery
