50th Birthday Party · 30 guests · November 2025 · Whole Venue

Food was excellent, staff friendly and helpful, great location, lots of options, so it was just perfect!

Practically nothing, just as advice for the future, let people pour their own prosecco (which should be kept in ice) so it doesn't get warm
