About this space

The 'carte blanche!' room is a private Event Space in The Voodoo Rooms defined by a continuous leather banquette that organises the seating and circulation.

Design: The space has pale chevron-parquet flooring, white textured walls and framed artwork that provide a clean, understated backdrop. The furniture pairs light-wood chairs and patterned tabletops against neutral finishes, producing a compact, intimate proportion.

Features: The room includes Wi‑Fi and air conditioning. The room receives ample natural daylight from multiple windows. The room is arranged with movable tables and chairs on a hardwood floor to support different seating plans.

Ideal for: Small teams or close-knit social groups seeking seated dinners or relaxed, conversational gatherings in a compact, daylit setting.

What sets it apart: The room includes an integrated PA system and permits external DJs, enabling hosts to run their own music without additional venue setup.

What guests say: The space is praised for its distinctive, theatrical aesthetic. The space is supported by attentive front-of-house service during private bookings.
