Booked Ollie's at Ollie's Private Event Space
5.0
I loved having my birthday at Ollie's. It was a great space for hosting a large group. The staff were great at accommodating the things we needed (plates and cutlery) and letting us put up some of our own decorations. I would host another event here 100%.

Booked Wee Tap at Hanover Tap, Edinburgh

This was a fantastic venue for a party! The minimum spend of £1000 was reasonable and achievable within the time frame, so I received my deposit back! We were able to play our own music and the staff were very attentive. 10/10 would definitely book again!
