Party smart, spend wisely—Southwark’s got your back. This borough is proof you don’t need a sky-high budget to throw an epic event. Think trendy warehouse spaces in Bermondsey, candlelit private rooms in Borough Market, and the trendiest bars near London Bridge where you only pay for what you drink (because who needs hire fees?). Planning a birthday? Celebrate in style at a posh restaurant with delicious food, great company, and stunning views of the Thames. Hosting a company event? A stylish pub in Elephant and Castle offers craft beers, gourmet nibbles, and a tab that won’t give your boss a heart attack. Whatever the occasion, Southwark’s best minimum spend venues are waiting. Book your spot and let the good times roll!

The staff were absolutely incredible, they made everything work so smoothly. We had the best time, and the venue is fantastic! Thank you so, so much. Delicious drinks, fantastic vibes.
The venue is lovely and the staff is so kind and helpful. The food was also very good. Would definitely recommend.
The food was amazing and yummy! Little bit pricey. The venue is gorgeous and is perfect for a first birthday. We had a great experience with the booking manager.
I recently hosted a surprise birthday party at Glasshaus, and it was a fantastic experience! All the staff were very helpful and ensuring everything went smoothly. Special thanks to Amy who was excellent in communication and Beata who helped me with catering, and Neve, Duty Manger on the day, was efficient and welcoming. The venue itself is charming and created the perfect atmosphere for our celebration. Guests loved it! Overall, I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to host a memorable event.
Andrew was so helpful from beginning until end. He made the process easy and simple and answered the 100’s of questions that I had. The venue was perfect location wise as it is right opposite Waterloo station. My guests were impressed with the decor and layout the venue. It made my 25th birthday so special! Thank you Andrew! I would recommend this venue to everyone.
The place was quiet which meant that it felt very much like a nearly private party! The bartenders were very kind and attentive. Food went down well (it’s not INCREDIBLE food but it did the trick). Drinks demolished. Beer pong fun. Nice to be able to go outside to get some air. DJ did well and catered to what he saw we liked. Great birthday all around and would definitely recommend. Very accommodating and allowed an external birthday cake and balloons. Thank you!
