We had a much larger group that was accommodated in the public bar space with dedicated bar. The team was fantastic from planning to service and execution on the day.
Not so much a dislike, but the tall stools were a bit unwieldy/top heavy and it didn't take much to knock them over. Full disclosure: we weren't a rowdy bunch.
