Club Room at Forge

Great venue , had club room downstairs great space for numbers over 150+, accommodating to request for private event, Chris is amazing worked hard throughout the evening to try to make things go as smoothly as possible

Over events in other rooms , cross over of music, some technical issues which was due to the 2 other events taking place at the same time but seems that only club room was impacted, Cocktails were watered down which was a real shame as this was the theme and raised it with Chris an ensured that this didn’t happen again.

Great space in a central location. Very friendly staff and decent facilities. HQ team were helpful in coordinating details in advance, and Katie (manager at Forge) was lovely at the advance viewings.

Service was slow and bar was not well-stocked - not ideal when you need to hit a minimum spend. Club Room was the perfect size for 125 guests, but would have felt extremely crowded with the 350-400 capacity advertised. Some difficulties with set-up for external DJ and bins in the toilets had not been changed after previous event.

Venue manager Hannah was a complete star. Great location with perfect two-room layout (lounge/club). Exclusive use on a Saturday and 3am finish.

Catering was average - would be good to be able to bring in outside caterers. Frustrating to only be able to communicate with venue manager the day before the party - earlier access would have been more efficient. Some issues with staff on night - sorted by Hannah

The extremely accommodating nature of the sales and events team, making it the perfect occasion for my engagement party.

Very few negatives, although I would recommend adding more light inside the venue - this will help photographers and videographers with their content.
