Fairground 2 at Cuckoo

From my first interaction, everyone we dealt with was so friendly and helpful - this really set Cuckcoo apart from other venues. Nothing was too much trouble and the whole team made sure we had a great night. The decor in the venue is really fun and it just made for a great atmosphere. Also a special shout out to the barman James who was amazing and really added to the night!

Booked the Fairground 2 room out for a 40th party and it was a great night! The bar staff were great and served us all night super quickly and we're very patient as the night went on. I ordered pizzas which came out on perfect time and they kept replenishing until I'd reach the limit I paid for.

The only downside is I didn't realise could have made my own playlist, and although myself and the person who's party it was didn't realise due to socialising, the songs must have repeated themselves about 4 times in 2 hours as some of our guests mentioned it. By the time we realised it was abit late and we had issues connecting up to their WiFi. Although eventually the bar staff did get changed. My advice is for the venue is advise customers on maybe making their own playlist for the night so they are prepared. But the birthday boy had an amazing night!

The room itself was great. Loved the look of it and it was perfect for our party size! Great location, easy to get to.

We were a bit disappointed that there was no draught beer at our bar. This meant that people were going downstairs for it and therefore it wasn’t going against our minimum spend. It was also a surprise to us that bottled beer was nearly the same price as draught beer. The other thing that disappointed us was the fact that cash wasn’t accepted as we were not expecting that. Overall it was a good night but this is just a little feedback.

Great venue and atmosphere. Helpful during the booking process. Good bar staff.

It wasn’t organised very well when they were bringing the pizzas out. They brought all vegan pizza first so most people ended up eating that without realising so there was less pizza left for the actual vegans. A mixture of vegan and vegetarian should have been brought out at the same time and a sign put up to show which is which. Staff did not seem sure which pizza was vegan/vegetarian. Also there was no sign on the door when we arrived so some guests couldn’t find our party at first and one guest ended up walking into the other room. I had to ask the bar staff where the sign was and he chased it up. The sign was put on about one hour later but my name was spelled wrong. It could have been better organised.
