About this space

The Mezzanine at Piazza Italiana offers a striking and elegant setting, suspended above our grand Main Dining Hall and framed by the venue’s breathtaking Grade II listed architecture. With intricate ironwork balustrades, soaring ceilings, and views across the opulent restaurant below, this semi-private space delivers a truly elevated experience for both corporate and private events.

From business breakfasts and networking receptions to client lunches, private dinners, and celebrations, the Mezzanine is ideal for mid-sized events that strike the perfect balance between intimacy and scale. Seating up to 50 or accommodating up to 70 standing, it’s a flexible space that can be tailored to suit everything from formal dining and canapé receptions to presentations or social gatherings.

Our award-winning Italian menus, honoured with two AA Rosettes, promise a culinary experience of the highest standard — showcasing seasonal dishes, refined canapés, and carefully selected wines. Our new Chef’s Charcuterie Table (£35pp) adds a unique, interactive element to standing events, with meats and cheeses sliced live by our chefs to create your perfect antipasti plate.
