They were very helpful in getting us setup with the speakers, TV, food and table arrangements etc. Tilly behind the bar was great and put up with us for the evening with a smile despite our drunken antics. They provided great service and the room was perfect for our needs.

Very good communication before the event and it was a perfect space for our pub quiz. Staff made the effort to provide us a microphone on request, and the bar staff were really friendly!

The space was a good size, lots of seating options. We were able to play our own music. Staff were helpful. We reached the minimum spend and the £200 deposit was returned the next working day. Thanks for a great party!
