About this space

Waterfront Bar is a Function Room in The Promenade Docklands that serves as the venue's waterfront-facing reception bar, defined by a long service counter and an open-plan layout for mingling.

Design: The space is contemporary and compact, featuring a stone-topped bar, warm globe pendant lighting, tiled floors and large glazing that admits natural light and frames harbour views.

Features: A staffed stone service bar forms the room's focal point, accompanied by a built-in PA system and speakers, venue Wi‑Fi and air conditioning. The room permits own music and BYO DJs subject to the venue's noise restrictions, and it is wheelchair accessible.

Ideal for: Corporate teams and social groups seeking a relaxed, cocktail-style standing reception and easy mingling around a central bar.

What sets it apart: Retractable floor-to-ceiling glass doors open directly onto an undercover waterfront terrace, creating seamless indoor–outdoor flow.

What guests say: The Waterfront Bar is supported by attentive, communicative event staff who help ensure smooth coordination on the night.
