The room and facilities was ideal for what we needed and fully supported with refreshments. Service and willingness to support was excellent and the catering for lunch was of the highest order. Great location and value for money so we will definitely be back.
Great communication and the space was exactly as advertised. We didn't have the time to get a recce in as it was quite a last minute project, so the venue were extremely helpful in helping us out.
Loved it, the space was perfect, the elevated mezzanine was exactly what I wanted and the whole group had an incredible time
Everything. Staff were so accommodating, and allowed us to stay a little longer. Great team, credit to the company.
Staff really helpful and attentive, could bring own cake, able to decorate the area prior to the event, fantastic location, 0 cost as was just a deposit per head.
Wow, I was blown away by the service, amenities, food, and atmosphere. The sales manager (Dovile) was incredibly accommodating and helpful ahead of our booking and the staff on the day could not have been more friendly and helpful. All the guests loved the venue and a few are considering booking it for their birthday celebrations! 10/10 would book again and come back in a heartbeat.
Manager on site was very helpful professional and friendly. Happy to accommodate where she could and kept us informed as required/necessary.
- The amazing, friendly and welcoming staff - the best I've come across in London - The great venue in a central location - The brilliant food - The reasonable price
