About this room

A light airy space with natural daylight, our Upper Arch is perfect for Birthdays, Engagement parties, standing receptions or after-work drinks.
Our Upper Arch is a semi-private area on our upper floor that opens out to our main bar area shown in the background.
It has a raised area at the opposite end leading to outside with our comfy curved pink booth adding a pop of colour in the space.
To make your evening more exciting we can supply a Beer Pong table in front of the poster with the red horse for some added interactive fun for your guests and costs £25 per game.
We also have a DJ on from 9pm on Fridays and Saturdays playing a mix of commercial R&B, Pop, House, 80s, 90s and 00s Club Classics until 1.30am when we close.

Seats 20 for dinner or 50 for a standing reception.
