From our initial inquiry to the end of the evening, working with the team at Hot Toddy was an absolute pleasure. The entire experience was seamless. The venue was perfect for hosting a birthday celebration - stylish and comfortable, with delicious canapé options, welcome drinks, a private bar, a PA system, and exclusive access to the restaurant later in the night. Alice was incredibly responsive and helpful throughout the planning process, and the staff on the night were not only professional but genuinely warm and attentive, ensuring everything ran smoothly and that we had a fantastic time.
