Fantastic venue and excellent staff. There was a minor miscommunication just before the party, but the issue was sorted out quickly. Marthas Bar was the perfect size for a group of 22, including children, for a seated Christmas lunch. We used the side room as a space for the children to play. The food was very delicious, and the wines were lovely. Our own bartender Charles looked after us well, and the service was efficient and well-organized.

Not really a negative of the venue, but we noticed a big difference in volume for some starters, namely huge slices of duck parfait vs a tiny pot of smoked salmon. Maybe they were meant to be, but the difference did surprise us a bit.

Amazing venue. Had my baby shower in this place and service was great, food package was surprisingly generous with the size and portion. Guest were happy. Everything went really smoothly. Thank you so much. A really good experience. It’s likely we’ll use this venue again in the future.
