About this space

The Semi-private Events Space in The Parliament Arms is a compact, wood-panelled area set apart from the main bar and arranged for private use within the pub.

Design: The room displays dark oak panelling, a low beamed ceiling and small windows that create pockets of natural light and compact proportions.

Features: A fixed PA system and speakers handle announcements and playlists. Venue Wi‑Fi is provided. A mix of high tables, stools and booth seating allows flexible arrangements and partial separation from the main bar. A noise restriction applies to preserve neighbouring areas.

Ideal for: Intimate groups seeking a relaxed, social setting for seated dinners or compact standing receptions.

What sets it apart: The space has a step-free guest entrance and accessible toilets that support easier access for attendees with mobility needs.
