50th Birthday Party · 80 guests · September 2025

We recently celebrated our joint 50th at The Blacksmith Bar, and it couldn’t have been more perfect. Shae was an absolute dream to deal with—so easy to reach and incredibly helpful, especially when it came to deciding on catering for the night. The venue itself is stunning, the food was delicious, and the drinks kept flowing thanks to the amazing bar team. Every staff member, from behind the bar to the floor, was friendly, attentive, and really added to the atmosphere. We had such a memorable night and can’t thank the team enough. We’ll definitely be back and highly recommend The Blacksmith Bar for any special occasion.

The only slight challenge was parking—it’s not huge, so you may need to search a little. But honestly, it wasn’t a big issue and definitely didn’t take away from the night

21st Birthday Party · 50 guests · February 2025

I was quite worried about the event, but Shae and Simon made everything go smoothly that night. The staff were also very helpful and nice on the night.

Parking is a little difficult but very accessible by public transport.

Everything was perfect, staff are so attentive and friendly. Shae is always there to help with any enquiries we had at the time, before, during and after the event. Couldn't ask for a better place to have our special day.
