Birthday Party · 16 guests · November 2025 · The Green Room

Great venue, simple conditions, and really keen to get you to have a good time! The manager on the day Jadha and the bartender who served us Mr Shah (apologies for spelling mistakes!) were really kind and took great care of us :) Highly recommend! The space we reserved was also just like the pictures, and a perfect corner to be with friends but also experience the vibes of the wider venue :)

Big Chill Kings Cross is a Trusted Tagvenue Partner, validated by the Tagvenue team with a record of successful bookings on the platform.

Born from a boutique festival in 2004, Big Chill brings together music, food, drinks and good times in the heart of London. Located just 2 minutes from King’s Cross & St Pancras International and 10 minutes from Euston Station, our vibrant three-floor venue with a rooftop terrace is designed for everything from relaxed after-work drinks and birthday celebrations to corporate events, Christmas or Summer parties and exclusive private hire.

Big Chill offers a choice of flexible spaces, from semi-private areas and intimate group bookings to fully private rooms and exclusive venue hire for up to 450 guests. Our south-facing rooftop terrace provides an additional space to relax, socialise and enjoy the atmosphere, while private areas can include dedicated bars, DJ booths, sound systems, projectors and other event facilities.

Entertainment is at the heart of Big Chill. We show Sky Sports throughout the week, host live music every Thursday and live DJs every Friday and Saturday until 3am. For private events, clients can bring their own DJ or choose from our entertainment options, with opportunities to arrange live bands, DJs, karaoke, magicians, tarot readers, caricaturists and more.

Our food offering is led by Chick 'n' Sours, serving next-level fried chicken including burgers, wings and sharing platters. We can also provide bespoke food and drinks options, pre-orders and dedicated menus to suit individual events.

For private hire, our spaces can be tailored to the occasion with dedicated bars, bespoke menus, entertainment and event extras. Our team works with clients to create everything from informal drinks receptions and team socials to large-scale corporate parties and full venue celebrations.
