About this space

The Backroom is a semi-private event space in The Winslow pub, defined by its partitioned booth layout that creates a secluded area within the venue.

Design: The room displays deep tufted leather seating, damask-style wallpaper and dark timber panelling over a polished wooden floor, all lit by low, warm fixtures that keep the proportions intimate.

Features: Wi‑Fi and natural daylight are available in the space. Wheelchair access is provided and accessible toilets are available nearby.

Ideal for: Small social groups and work teams seeking a relaxed, conversational boothed setting for seated socialising or informal mingling.

What sets it apart: An in-room PA system and permission to play your own music allow private playlists or a small live setup tailored to the group's needs.

What guests say: The backroom has friendly, attentive staff who manage bookings and on-the-night service. The backroom can be loud when live music or playlists are playing, which reduces conversational clarity.

I loved how responsive Mark was about any little inquiry we had. The space was overall super cozy and perfect for my party. The attentiveness of our server was superior and everything went by smoothly. We had such a time, we didn’t realize how time just flew!
