The space is perfect for nibbles and drinks and intimate parties. We can cater for meat, veggie and vegan, and our Californian inspired menu is 100% gluten-free. On the drinks front, we offer a wide range of quirky signature cocktails, alongside gluten free beers, wines and a wide range of spirits.

The staff were amazing! Soo lovely, such a vibe! Soo kind, soo friendly, helpful and very much helpful with everything. Everything was explained well, they listened to the things I wanted and didn’t want in the venue like certain decoration and table arrangements. They had a karaoke machine, which was fantastic! As we all love karaoke, especially the celebrant. The venue was affordable as we didn’t need to put down a deposit, just a minimum spend. Which was good for us👌🏾 Overall a nice venue that just needs a few tweaks
The venue was good just a little things they could improve on. • Doors are imperative especially when the basement venue is soo close to the toilet. There wasn’t a toilet door to the women’s bathroom, only on the actual toilet. So we could smell the toilet at times and we had to ask them to spray. •They need a three doors one at the bathroom point, one at the stairs, and a door just beide you enter the basement - this is because we also had issues with sound, the music we were playing was apparently being heard by the venue upstairs, so we had to reduce the volume of our music. A sound proof door is needed at each of the venue points so people can enjoy their music. The food - they had to bring the food before the celebrant came because the kitchen was closing for 2 hours. So they brought it by force. The cooking process - the meat even the burgers were like medium rare when we wanted well done, we could see the blood pressing out of the burger and steak. At the end of the part when we got home my friend who had the steak with blood coming out was vomiting all night sadly. I had asked my buyer to be redone because it was bloody and I only eat well done. I think they need to highlight in their booking as there wasn’t a choice in the booking to make it well done on the burger.
service people super nice
the area it was close to the toilet entrance
Space was lovely and big - I’d say bigger than the pictures suggest and was nicely decorated. The majority of staff were super lovely, friendly and helpful. The DJ / music choice was amazing! I had prepped my own playlists but didn’t feel the need to even use it. Food came out on time! All in all I’d return back here for sure. I had the best evening.
We were given an extra food plate by accident which my guests ate as no one realised this and I was requested to pay for it even though this was not my fault. It was a bit hard to keep track of minimum spend as a lot of my guests bought from the bar but didn’t mention it was with my party.
The cocktail lounge was a lovely space to host drinks, and the happy hour was really good. The range of food and drinks were impressive and the manager Evan was super helpful, welcoming and friendly.
We could smell the toilets from the cocktail lounge and a lot of customers would walk into the private space we had thinking they were the toilets. We had some issues getting our device to connect to the speakers, but the staff were really helpful with this. The worst part of our night was the homophobic security guard, at our same sex engagement party. He continually poked his head through the curtains of the cocktail lounge, staring at my two female friends who were dancing together, which made them very uncomfortable. Then he followed them into the toilets, telling them they were not allowed in the same cubicle, asking if they were lesbians, and asked 'are you in love', which made them very intimidated and scared.
