Everyone loved the venue, and the set up. They liked that we had a DJ, and we were able to DJ ourselves. They loved the games, such as the darts, and beer pong. Organising the event with Alex, was also really smooth and I had received great communication from him. Thanks Alex for all of your help!

30th Birthday Party · 80 guests · November 2025
The best venue for your event! From enquiring to arranging last minute things for the evening to the night itself Alex and the team at The Shack couldn’t have been better. Alex and I discussed my requirements in depth and she really made sure that everything id mentioned was listened to and achieved. Thank you so much for hosting my 30th birthday, a night to remember and it wouldn’t have been possible without you!
