THE MOST PERFECT VENUE IN LONDON!! Jamie, Craig, Max and the rest of the team were so helpful with everything. Was the perfect venue for my 21st Birthday party. Loved the custom cocktails and the food was 10/10!! Would highly recommend

I honestly could not fault anything with this venue. I hired it for a leaving party and in total there were about 60 of us, all arriving in drips and drabs. The staff were so so helpful and so lovely, even offered a personalised cocktail menu which was such a lovely touch and impeccably done. Would highly recommend

Only thing to note is the prices were a little on the high end, however it is central London so it’s to be expected. And even despite a bit of high cost for the drinks it is so so worth it. Great venue

From first inquiry all the way to the event itself, everything was absolutely brilliant. Quick, efficient communication from Craig in the lead-up to the event, and was very well looked after on the day to setup and at the actual event from Max and Sergio. The food was excellent, and the soundsystem was fantastic. Was so handy having a cloakroom, and the DJ equipment was top tier and very well looked after. I would highly, highly recommend this venue if you're hosting a party. I would absolutely rush back!

The only quibble was the slightly limited drinks selection and the price, but I'm really nitpicking as they still had all the drinks the people wanted and the price is just symptomatic of the location (which is absolutely amazing and so easy to reach from all of London). It wouldn't stop me booking this place again!
