Birthday Party · 25 guests · June 2024

Hosted a mid twenties birthday party here and the team was superb. Super responsive with Emma in the lead up, and Charlie + team took care of us very well while there. Everyone loved the food, and the space is lovely (cozy, green, airy).

The audio set up is in the hallway, so it's hard to stay bluetooth connected if you're moving around the room with your phone. Best to play using their ipad set by the counter, but not the best for being control the song whenever.
