Birthday Party · 40 guests · December 2025

Celebrating my birthday with 30 guests in the White Room on Sunday afternoon was perfect! I booked the entire event from NYC without ever having visited the Aviary and I was thrilled with my choice. The delightful helpful staff were so appreciated on what can be a stressful day for the birthday boy. The canapés were delicious and the room itself worked perfectly for the 30 guests. Would have been great for 50 guests too! Thanks so much I had the best time on my birthday.

Function Room · 40 guests · April 2026

I had my intimate 30th here with 30 guests (space for more). Rosie was amazing and very attentive on the day of the event. Every request was met with ease and I didn't feel like a burden in anyway. Lovely venue - well equipped. She even arranged for the flower arrangement to be returned the following days which was one less thing to stress about.

The tapas did come out however the wait staff only held it to the bar side once and then it was placed on the side table. I expected them to at least walk the room rather than just bring it out to the table. I did also ordered a few bottles of wine for welcome drinks and I thought they would be pre-poured and on a tray offered to guests when they arrived however it was just glasses and the wines on the bar counter. Defeats the purpose of welcome drinks as guests could've ordered from the bar. The downlights in the room was in a series circuit with the toilet lights so when we had the room lights off, so did the toilet lights which was inconvenient.
