Such a smart and useful space for our senior managers to get together. We are a fully remote-working charity, and this space is so affordable and convenient. Kevin is incredibly helpful and quick to reply to any queries. Highly recommend!
Absolutely fantastic service and drinks. The team were excellent the whole night, made everyone feel very welcome and were very attentive.
Venue was clean and modern. Bar was well stocked and cocktails were great. Bar staff and security were great - polite, professional. Making the booking was really easy, Ash is great at answering queries and supporting with the process.
Great location for a birthday party for 40 people. Easy to book with only a deposit which turned into a bar tab. Staff were so lovely, friendly and helpful.
The staff were brilliant! Super responsive in the lead up and extremely helpful on the day. I also liked how easy it was to book and organise food for the group. I also loved how the space was separate from the rest of the pub, so I could easily engage with my guests!
The venue was PERFECT for our bridal shower and the owner,Zoe, was incredibly kind, helpful and understanding. The space was big enough for 20 people and has a garden The place was bigger than I imagined as well. The garden in the back is an amazing touch as it allowed our guests to get fresh air without leaving the building Zoe also let us extend our event by an hour without any hassle.
A great space for our engagement party and the sharing boards we ordered for our guests were delicious and got lots of compliments! Also loved that I could play my music through the speaker system and the staff were great about letting us put some decorations up and letting us stay past 6pm.
Great staff, location and made to feel very comfortable. Alex is always on hand when needed and there is great food at the cafe next door.
