About this space

Semi-Private Drinks Area is a private space within Old Street Tavern that provides a partly separated social corner offering proximity to the main bar while retaining a degree of privacy.

Design: The space pairs exposed industrial columns and high ceilings with warm timber furniture and mixed-height seating. The room uses layered chandeliers and indoor planting to soften concrete floors and large windows.

Features: The area has a built-in PA system and speaker setup for announcements or background music. The area includes air conditioning and venue Wi‑Fi. The area provides a compact dancefloor plus a mix of high tables, stools and banquette seating for standing or informal seating. The area is wheelchair accessible and served directly from the adjoining bar.

Ideal for: Work teams and social groups seeking an informal standing reception with music and room to mingle rather than a formal sit-down arrangement.

What sets it apart: A fixed partition and flexible layout allow the area to be cordoned off for private gatherings without fully isolating guests from the venue’s central activity.

What guests say: The space is cosy and attractively furnished, and the staff are friendly and attentive.
