Booked N7 London at N7 London

5.0

The venue was lovely. Had a few people enquire about the venue as it looked very nice. Andrew was a life saver!!! With my previous venue cancelling 4days before my event he tried to accommodate me as best he could and done an amazing job. The lady security was absolutely lovely! But my star has to be ASHLEY. She was absolutely a star. She helped my mum set up as she was struggling with the decorations I brought lol. She cut my cake. She made sure me and all my guests were okay. Honestly, she is one of the biggest reasons I would come back, she made me feel so comfortable especially as I was drinking a lot. I definitely hope to use this venue again and I do hope she’s on the bar again!

Booked The Basement Bar at The Slaughtered Lamb

5.0

I had amazing halloween party. The basement looks dark and authentic for such a spooky event. The music equipment was very convenient and team help me if I had questions. Unlike many other places hosts here are happy for us to decorate event as much as we like, even with messy things like Halloween spider webs. The walls of the venue also have some existing features that made decorations easy to attach. The food provided by the venue was great. My guests liked it very much. Preordering drinks was very convenient and was happy with everything. Good venue!

Had a great experience celebrating my birthday here! The staff were super welcoming and friendly — they even greeted me with a glass of sparkling wine which was a lovely touch. The patio was a great spot to hang out, and the atmosphere overall was relaxed and fun. Would definitely go back and recommend it to others!

Booked The Deco Lounge at Big Chill Kings Cross

4.4

I had a great time at Big Chill King’s Cross. Venue manager, Adelaide, was very responsive and on top of everything. The venue was able to accommodate for my special requests and dietary requirements. Most of the staff I interacted was very proactive though on the night some of them could have been a bit more proactive in helping out when we ran out of cutlery etc (though I understand it was a busy Saturday night). Big thanks to Adelaide for being such a great venue manager!

Booked Main Bar Room at Ninth Ward London

5.0

I recently celebrated my birthday at Ninth Ward, and I couldn't have asked for a more memorable experience. From the moment we stepped through the door, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that set the tone for the entire evening. The staff at ninth ward went above and beyond to ensure that our celebration was nothing short of perfect. They were not only accommodating but also genuinely invested in making sure every detail exceeded our expectations. It's rare to encounter such exceptional service, and it made our celebration feel even more special. Overall, my experience at Ninth Ward exceeded all expectations. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion or simply enjoy an unforgettable experience. Thank you to the entire team for making my birthday celebration one to remember!

This was last minute due to a restaurant cancellation and I found this venue late at night. They responded to me in the morning and allowed me to use their venue for my friends surprise. This was such a great thing for them to do and I’m so grateful everything went to plan. Thank you so much again
