Booking a venue for your dinner is easy! Make sure you start your search as early as possible, preferably around 6-8 weeks before the event is meant to take place. Begin by figuring out all the details, including the number of guests and your budget. You can enter this information into our smart venue finder to get the most accurate venue suggestions! Think of what atmosphere you want from the venue - is it going to be a vibrant birthday dinner or rather an elegant business lunch with important clients? You can look through venue photos and read reviews to find out more about what the private room is like! Then, check the location. There are  fantastic private dining rooms all over Glasgow, but you should know about the public transport links and parking opportunities in the area before deciding on a venue. Finally, make sure the venue can cater to your guests’ dietary needs. Planning a vegetarian feast or in need of a good kosher restaurant?
