About this space

With a maximum capacity of 100 standing guests, the Basement Bar is your go to space for a party. A large private bar ensures your guests are served quickly or skip the queue altogether and pre-order from our drinks packages to obtain a small discount against our drinks menu on the day.

The space also features private toilets and cloakroom on the same floor and a brand new state of the art music system, great for if you are hiring a DJ!

Worried about the heat in the summer months? Fear not, the space is airconditioned!

Christmas Party · 50 guests · October 2025
Excellent staff interactions. Highly supportive and flexible to our event. Great private space that was well lit and offered personal bar and toilets. Well connected and easy to find.
Microphone speaker quality was slightly less clear than ideal but still did the job.
