Booked Upstairs Private Room at The Chapel Market Tavern
We had a party with our friends to celebrate our elopement abroad. The venue was the perfect space for this, we were able to play music, show our video, and of course have a drink. Having a bartender in the room was we great, and everyone enjoyed the food. Thank you so much for having us!

Nice little space at the back of the pub. Staff were super friendly and helped us rearrange furniture and put up decorations.

Booked First Floor Function Room at The Angelic
Nice clean space for ~60 people. Friendly staff. Bar queue remained small throughout the night. Private event toilets on the floor worked really well too. They were fine with us hanging up some birthday banners and balloons.

The venue itself is a beautiful intimate space but Julija was an amazing manager really made the event happen without a hiccup. She was thoughtful and helpful in her suggestions and questions and I highly recommend the venue! The catering was excellent especially the cheesecake!
