Christmas Party · 100 guests
· December 2025
We had a fantastic time at Marquis Cornwallis for our Christmas party. We had around 80 guests, which felt like the most we would want in the space, it was very full but it worked. The staff were fantastic and the food was great, we'd definitely love to be back!
The advert said the space would hold 100 but we had 80 and that felt as full as would be comfortable. Not a complaint, just a comment for future.

The food was ok
The service was good
Too noisy
Expected a table positioned enough away from the main pub to be able to make conversation- instead our table was in the middle of the noisy pub. Spoilt the event
Position of table - too crowded no room to move around
the table was not ready when we arrived

Brilliant communication before and after the event. The space was beautiful and exactly as advertised, and represented brilliant value for money given the location. The catering was spot on too. Staff were very friendly and helpful on the day in helping me get the room organised
