A fantastic venue in a great location, with an exceptional events team. Communication was excellent throughout, and the team were incredibly accommodating of our bespoke requests, helping to ensure everything ran seamlessly for our Summer Party.
Amazing venue and staff. Everything from the outset was clearly organised and the team are fantastic. What makes Savage Garden different to other venues is that it's clear they take great interest in your event and work closely with you to bring your vision to life. We hosted an event for around 200 people and it couldn't have gone more smooth, all feedback I have received has been incredibly positive! The food, venue and vibes are 10/10! Thank you again for helping us plan an amazing event
Great venue, Nina and the other staff were very helpful and made sure everything was as we wanted. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the food and drink served at Core.
Great service and food, great location and spacious place, We had a really great time, thanks to Steve and the team.
Great venue downstairs that we were able to have exclusive use of for a work event. Staff very friendly and helpful
The staff were very accommodating and welcoming. The area is spacious and the decor is lovely! We had a great evening here
Excellent location for an after-work event in the heart of the City. The bar staff and event manager were great, however the staff serving the food were less so. When asked if one of the dishes was vegetarian they didn't know, and seemed annoyed that they had to find out.
The team were amazing to work with, they made the process from booking, discussing our vision and executing the evening so smooth! The food was delicious and high quality - everyone loved it!
