Bar · 40 guests · July 2023
Amazing modern venue with tasteful decor. We comfortably fit 60-70 guests with ample room to eat mingle and dance. Communication was clear and professional throughout the booking process and the onsite staff were very helpful during the event. Would highly recommend for a full-bar event!
Our DJ unfortunately was unable to use the audio hardware provided by the venue because it was faulty from a previous event. The venue staff helped switch to our personal gear during the event and provided a discount for the trouble.

About Gelso & Grand

Gelso & Grand is a Trusted Tagvenue Partner, validated by the Tagvenue team with a record of successful bookings on the platform.

Gelso & Grand conceived by a Mulberry street local that was motivated to push the boundaries of a historic block that is in search of its reinvention.

Mulberry Street was once a marketplace where the freshest ingredients and products were showcased. We’re bringing back what Mulberry Street was all about by sourcing local produce and hand rolling all of our pastas in-house.

The showcase of our open kitchen & the basis of our menu, our wood-fired oven emphasizes the rustic authenticity that makes us Gelso & Grand.
