Couldn't recommend this venue enough. Katie, Flo and the rest of the team were so helpful and professional, the venue is stunning, food was absolutely fantastic (the bowls were a big hit with our group) and the team did everything they could to help the event run smoothly. Thank you so much- we will definitely be back!
Had the best birthday ever here, the staff are lovely and accommodating, they were quick to sort out any issues or needs we had. Very friendly. All my guest had the best time whether that was playing pool together or singing karaoke which we did all night long. Very worth the money, great food and drink. Just an all round fun time and would definitely come back again and trust them to make any celebration or event a success
The communication before the event was very thorough and the team was always on top of things which put us at ease. Service was efficient without being intrusive, and they were very accommodating for all our requests. The bartenders were also very friendly and all the guests had an incredible time. They also kept us posted on how much more we have left on the bar tab so we could use up our tab in good time. There was nothing we could fault!
I had an amazing experience! The event went so smoothly, and everything was incredibly well-organized. The food was delicious, and the drinks were abundant, keeping everyone happy throughout the event. A special shoutout to Maddy from the event team, who was incredibly hands-on and helpful from start to finish. Her attention to detail and support made all the difference. I will definitely book with them again—highly recommended!
We were a group of 30. After viewing so many venues,this place ticked all our boxes and was within our budget. It was worth every single penny. I'm so surprised that it is pretty cheap compared to other pubs in that vicinity. The food was delicious and every single person in our group enjoyed it. Alcohol packages were a wowzer. Amazing find tbh. Gui and Philip at the venue were helpful.
The food was exceptionally good; guests were raving about the quality of the food and the cocktails were delicious. Everyone was served food and the circulation was good. Overall the party was a success and it went on without any issues. But that was because I had to constantly monitor what was going on and remind people rather than enjoy myself.
A great location for our alumni drinks party. Staff were fantastic and food was delicious, although it did get stuck in one corner of the bar. I felt it was quite full with around 100 people in there, and because of acoustics quite noisy, so I'd advise anyone else booking to cap numbers at 100. We would definitely consider going back again!
The space is isolated from the rest of the pub but still easy to get to plus easy access to bathrooms. The bar itself inside this space is very nice and it feels like you've rented a whole pub instead of just one room. Service staff was very pleasant and very fast. People did not have to wait long for a beverage.
