The Huntsman and Hounds was the perfect venue for my 30th birthday. Great drinks, helpful staff, played our own music and were able to sit outside in the sun. Was well accessible for people coming from outside of London and we didn’t struggle to hit the minimum spend. I would hire it again in a heart beat!

Party · 50 guests · January 2026

The owner was one of the biggest highlights of the venue - very friendly, cordial and down-to-earth. And great taste in music to boot. Overall the venue was the perfect size for our private party. The acoustics were adjustable. We had an external karaoke machine so easily connected it to the laptop and monitor. Would definitely book again.

Birthday Dinner · 35 guests · November 2025

Ngoc was very easy to communicate with and a pleasure on the night. The pub was beautiful, and had been decorated, which made it feel so welcoming. We got to bring our own food and choose the music. Will definitely book again for any future events!

FAQ

Private hire means the entire pub is reserved exclusively for the booking.

Yes, the venue is a private hire, so the whole pub will be yours, and you are more than welcome to play your own music throughout the night; we are also happy to accommodate live music or a band and have the necessary licensing for it to happen.

Yes, clients are welcome to bring their own decorations and can arrive early to set up.

Due to capacity, the venue will primarily be a standing space, as some furniture will need to be rearranged to maximise room.

Yes, the pub lighting is on a dimmer circuit, so certain areas of the pub can be lowered.
