About this space

First Floor Private Hire is a first-floor function room in a pub characterised by an adaptable, open-plan layout that can be set up for dining or social use.

Design: The room displays traditional pub finishes such as dark timber panelling, varnished wood floors and framed prints. The windows admit steady daylight and the ceiling proportions feel domestic rather than vaulted.

Features: A serving bar sits on the first floor to manage drinks. A PA system and speakers are installed for amplified sound. Hosts can play their own music or bring a DJ using the room's audio hookups, and Wi‑Fi is available. Tables and chairs are movable to allow seated layouts or cleared standing space.

Ideal for: Friend groups and work teams seeking a relaxed, social setting suitable for mixed seated dining and casual standing receptions.

What sets it apart: A private roof terrace directly adjoins the room, providing an outdoor area that extends the hire space.

What guests say: The first-floor room has a welcoming, traditional-pub feel. The space is complemented by consistently friendly, attentive staff.
