FAQ

What music arrangements are available at the venue?

Guests cannot play their own music because the venue is open-plan; however, a DJ usually plays to the crowd on Saturday nights.

Can guests influence the music selection?

It depends on the DJ whether requests are accepted, but the venue generally says no in advance to avoid disappointment. This is because the venue is open-plan and other guests may be dining there.
