About this space

The Private Function Room is a Function Room in a restaurant that features a large arched window which fills the space with natural light.

Design: The interior pairs a long tufted banquette and mixed seating with dark timber tables, a patterned feature wall and herringbone flooring. The ceiling uses track and pendant lighting to give even illumination across the room.

Features: A built-in PA system and speakers provide in-room audio, and guests may supply their own music or bring a DJ subject to the venue's noise restrictions. Wi-Fi and air conditioning are provided. A dedicated dance floor area is available, and the room has a step-free guest entrance and wheelchair access.

Ideal for: Groups of friends or workplace teams seeking a relaxed, sociable seated meal that can transition into a standing reception and informal dancing.
