The venue and the staff were wonderful! We had out 10th wedding anniversary party at Brown's Covent Garden, and we and our guests had a wonderful time. The food was good, the amenities were as promised, and we were very happy with how everything turned out.

Engagement Party · 100 guests · November 2025
central location, size of room, lift, judge’s booth for dj / entertainment in the Judge’s court private dining room.
Their organisation/admin. We turned up 20 minutes early to set up the room and they had a room full of people eating dinner to make extra restaurant space. We had 10 minutes to spare before our guests arrive to quickly turn the room around, while they kept our guests downstairs waiting. I designed a bar menu that wasn’t prepared. They messed up our bar tab so we were charged an extra £600 at the end of the night. We received an apology and a refund but if you like event organisation I wouldn’t choose here.
