About this space

Lounge, a semi-private area in The Gallery, a compact corner defined by a curved banquette that creates a contained conversational space.

Design: The space has dark-painted walls, warm timber flooring and a mix of small round and square tables with wooden chairs. Low pendant lighting and a relatively low ceiling keep the room’s proportions intimate and subdued.

Features: The lounge includes Wi‑Fi and air conditioning, an in-house PA system and speakers, and permits own music or a bring-your-own DJ. The area has flexible table layouts, step-free guest access and accessible toilets.

Ideal for: Small groups looking for a relaxed, conversation-focused seated meal or an informal standing reception.

What guests say: The Lounge presents elegant table setups and gallery-style décor, creating a polished, welcoming atmosphere.
