Well Organised. Great staff. Great Entertainment. Great Door security. We had a really good night and have had nothing but great feedback regarding the night from our colleagues.
Photobooth £4. If that was included in the night extra positives.

Christmas Party · 20 guests · December 2022 · The Bierkeller Hall
Lots of food. Lots of drink. The other groups seemed to be having lots of fun!
I have never witnessed anything so xenophobic in my life. You seriously need to reconsider your entertainment band. I won't remind myself too much of the experience but two fat Brummy blokes and a 'fräulein' (also Brummy), making the most stereotypical (and pretty offensive) comments they could make, did not go down well with our group. I'm thankful our German colleague unfortunately was unable to attend! Food could be a bit better - a bit 'school dinner-y' but understandable for the price, with such high catering numbers. The toilets were FREEZING cold and had no locks on the female cubicles as every one was broken. Main aim seemed to be 'get as absolutely wrecked as you can, as quickly as possible' which is fun if that's what you're looking for but not what was advertised on the website so pretty awkward when you have to answer to your company directors the next day. Would not book again.

The place is nice, really good for the location.
The staff was talking loud over the speakers when they were doing their presentation. Drink Vouchers wasn't organised enough. TV Screens where on and off, had to ask multiple times to have it on. There wasn't a remote controller for the projector, so could change the slides.
