Birthday Party · 30 guests · December 2025

Communication was super easy with Brendan. The venue was absolutely stunning and very budget friendly. Loved the partially private lounge. The staff were absolutely awesome. The mager was so kind that evening, and the bar staff Rory was an absolute legend!

We had our Halloween-themed wedding at Tatler and had such a wonderful time! The venue was perfect, and the Halloween decorations were fantastic. Brendan was incredibly accommodating and helpful throughout the process. He went out of his way to help us with everything we needed and made sure things ran smoothly. The food was also really good, and our guests had a great time. Overall, we couldn't have asked for a better place to celebrate our wedding.

FAQ

Yes. The venue uses one sound system throughout, and the reserved bar area is adjacent to the dance floor.

Yes. You are welcome to decorate the reserved area as much as you like, provided nothing damages the walls and there is no glitter or confetti.

No. A guest list is the only option available to arrange in advance, but a suitable area should be available for guests to use once they arrive.

No. Cocktail-bar music is played before the DJ, and the venue's single sound system means clients cannot control the music.
