The venue was perfect. It was very well suited to the likes to the friend we were celebrating. The food was impressive, everything served was really good. Staff were efficient. Special shoutout to Sasha who helped us organise everything. Communication was smooth, nil complaints at all.
Food was delicious but could’ve been better if the main course portions were bigger.

Review for The Garden Parlour. On behalf of myself and our extended family, we want to thank you, Rani, Will and everyone for the caring and professional manner in which you handled the Celebrations of Life for our mother Pamela on Saturday 20th in the Garden Parlour. It was an emotional day for us and we are still dealing with her loss, but you and your staff did an exemplary job in working with us through the afternoon. For that we are very grateful and appreciative of how much you and your staff care. We were very happy with the food and flowers that were displayed on each of the tables. Rani and Sasha were so helpful and kept us up to date with everything from start to finish. Thanks again. 🙏🏼🥰
