The Huntsman and Hounds was the perfect venue for my 30th birthday. Great drinks, helpful staff, played our own music and were able to sit outside in the sun. Was well accessible for people coming from outside of London and we didn’t struggle to hit the minimum spend. I would hire it again in a heart beat!
