For popular café venues, especially in the city centre, it’s recommended to book at least 4 to 6 weeks in advance. High-demand venues may require even earlier reservations, particularly for weekend events. Smaller, more flexible spaces may have last-minute availability, but it’s always best to secure your booking as early as possible to avoid disappointment.
