Perfect space, everyone was super happy with it. The hosts were great - communicative, helpful, friendly. Had everything we needed - lots of modular furniture and props we were free to move around and utilise - amazing lighting setup - quiet, spacious, so nice having the kitchen as well. We'll definitely be back!
the space was perfect for the number of attendees, and Emma looked after us and the group so well. Bar food went down well and drinks selection was great.
The venue was perfect for our wedding reception. It is simply beautiful. Not much additional decor is required due to how intricate the details are. The team were great with answering any questions we had, and were super helpful on the day too! Great location, right in the heart of London, with close transport links and parking nearby!
I celebrated my birthday at Rhum Tavern on the 29th of May and had a genuinely wonderful time. The staff were kind, attentive, and made the whole evening feel special. The setting was relaxed but full of energy, the music and service were excellent, and everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I truly appreciated the warm atmosphere and thoughtful touches throughout the night. Thank you for making it such a memorable occasion.
Booked this venue for our graduation party and we had the best time - the team couldn’t be more helpful and attentive, and Immy made planning the event so easy! Can’t thank them enough for our wonderful night to celebrate our masters. To top it off the cocktails were delicious, special mention for the frozen daiquiri!
Such an amazing place to have a birthday party. Not only is the staff super supportive and helpful in the organization process but also during the night they were great! The vibe upstairs is fun and relaxed and the basement downstairs is the perfect size for a dancing party, the kareoke machine was an added bonus that made the night very lively ! Loved it
Central London location, private room downstairs with a private entrance and cloakroom separate from the rest of the pub. Good food, good bar service, easy to organise.
Great space, really cosy room with music from downstairs coming into the Den. Relaxed atmosphere, the bar staff were very attentive and it has the perfect offering of sofas/chairs and floor space.
