About this space

Semi-Private Area in The Mad Bishop & Bear (Event Space); a partitioned, quieter dining zone set apart from the main bar.

Design: The space features varnished wooden floors, tongue-and-groove wall panelling and a mix of high-backed velvet booths and patterned upholstered chairs that form small seating bays. The lighting is warm and low, emphasising the timber tones and detailed decor.

Features: In-room PA speakers support guest playlists and the area allows own music to be played. The space provides air conditioning and Wi‑Fi, fixed booth seating and freestanding tables that can be rearranged within the semi-private zone, and it receives natural light from the upper level.

Ideal for: Small work teams or friend groups seeking a relaxed, seated dinner or an informal standing reception in a quieter pub setting.

What sets it apart: A step-free guest entrance provides direct accessible access into the semi-private area.

What guests say: The semi-private area is clean and spacious with plentiful seating options. The space displays railway-themed detailing and a lively pub atmosphere.
