Booked Private Room & Bar 1st Floor at Clerkenwell and Social
5.0
Beautiful location, really central and easy to get to. The venue was the perfect size for our party of 50 guests plus a photo booth in one corner. It was great to have a whole floor to ourselves with its own bar and amenities. The staff were amazing, food was incredible and it was a hassle-free evening, so we could enjoy ourselves. Highly recommend this venue.
