Amazing staff, great event manager. Perfect location for an intimate wedding. Food is good and you can bring your own band to play in the evening. I would highly recommend this place.

Would recommend this place for any private event! We hired the space at Fidelio cafe to host an intimate wedding reception for 45 guests and that was the best decision ever! Rafaello responded to our enquiry almost instantly and agreed to meet with us on the same day. The space is magical. Sophisticated, elegant, down to earth, perfect for art & music lovers. The team runs all the events with such professionalism. They are friendly, kind, attentive, helpful and treated our special day as if it was their own! Shout out to Ashley, Predrag and the chef, Matt whose cooking is impeccable. Our guests had such a great time, the evening ran smoothly, it exceeded our expectations and wildest dreams. Thank you so much Fidelio cafe, Rafaello & team! We can't wait to visit you again soon & the wonderful music nights you organise!

The venue was unique lay out in a great location. Staff were super friendly and relaxed. Payment was also super convenient with a security deposit and payment link generated the next day for the remaining bar bill.

We didn't order enough food. We pre-selected the number of plates and probably needed at least 50% more food than we had ordered. Perhaps that could be an improvement in the pre-planning to check whether that was nibbles, or the main thing for food.


About Fidelio

Fidelio Cafe is a coffee-shop and bar with the mission of getting young people closer to classical music.

Arranged over basement, ground floor and mezzanine, it features a very unique charm bringing together the intimacy of the basement lounge with the open and light atmosphere of the main ground floor space.

We rent several of our spaces separately so do not hesitate to enquire about your best solution. We will be happy to help.
