The area we booked out for a team meeting was perfect. The staff were friendly and the happy hour(s) were great. There was a great vibe with live sports and even a live singer. We will definitely be returning!
I recently hosted my birthday here and I coudn't have asked for a better venue and service leading up to the event and during the party. The bar area is perfect for private celebrations and loved that we had our own bar and could play own nusic. A big thank you to the team for making this occasion so memorable.
We arranged for leaving drinks for around 40 people. The team at Vagabond were helpful and flexible from the start. We’re so grateful that they helped us to have such a fun and memorable afternoon. They really went above and beyond to ensure our event went amazingly and they are truly a credit to the Vagabond company! Could not recommend them more!
Loved everything! Bartender was super sweet and professional. The manager was always there to assist with anything. More than enough drinks for everyone for the whole night.
