About this space

Back Room is a Dining Room in the Shanghai Family restaurant and is characterised by a straightforward, functional fit-out intended for private group dining.

Design: The room pairs plain white walls and timber trim with simple wooden tables and bentwood-style black chairs, recessed downlights and an uncluttered finish; one round table includes a central lazy Susan for communal dining.

Features: Fixed PA system and speakers and venue Wi‑Fi are available, and the room allows guests to play their own music or bring a DJ. A sliding partition creates an enclosed, private space. The layout includes natural daylight and a mix of round and rectangular tables arranged for communal or individual seating.

Ideal for: Groups of diners seeking a relaxed, communal seated meal where conversation is the primary focus rather than a formal, staged event.

What sets it apart: A built-in projection surface and ceiling-mounted projector provide a controllable visual backdrop for presentations or ambient imagery.

What guests say: The room is warm and inviting, comfortable and clean. The space sustains a relaxed, not noisy atmosphere that makes conversation easy.
