50th Birthday Party · 100 guests
We held a joint birthday party for 80 guests in the ground floor. There was a separate party upstairs. There was a security guy on the front keeping parties in the right place and ensuring only invitees came in. Benny in the office was really good at liaising in advance of the party. The bar staff led by Norbert and Neomi couldn’t have been more helpful in ensuring we got the food and drink order sorted and managed the tab amazingly well keeping us informed throughout the night. The timing of the food coming out was perfect. The cocktails were delicious and the atmosphere was fantastic. Our guests all commented on how great the drinks were and how delicious the catering was. Great value for money. Perfect location
The gents toilets were flooded and out of action as was one of the 2 available ladies toilets. This meant there was only 1 toilet for 80 people. There was water all over the floor which I know the staff tried to manage but I’m disappointed that the venue did not take action or even let us know in advance of the party. Seems like something that might happen fairly often and the venue should have taken steps to manage this much better.

Corporate Party · 100 guests
The food and venue are great, the team did well to stop anyone not attending the event from entering the private space.
Shame there was a limited beer offering, would be good to have ale's on tap.

30th Birthday Party · 80 guests
Really helpful staff both on the booking side and at the venue. Super friendly and welcoming! Really easy to work with and very responsive on emails. The venue itself was gorgeous and fairly priced, we had over 80 people there and it was the perfect size. Catering was delicious and the drinks packages good value for money.
Only complaint was no beer on tap upstairs but just meant more people enjoyed the cocktails!
