This venue was the perfect spot to have my 60th birthday party celebration. I liked the fact that I could take in outside catering and also that the toilet facilities were on the same level which made it accessible for my guests. Communication with Andrew was excellent from day one and any questions I had he would promptly answer. The space was more than enough for my guests and seating and tables were also featured. I would highly recommend this venue if you're looking for somewhere in town, close to Waterloo station to hold a birthday party and it is also real good value for your money.

Birthday Party · 70 guests · May 2026 · Event Space
Definitely worth the value for money! The staff were also lovely and supportive on the day and my guests had so much fun. The space was also quite spacious.
I was informed by my coordinator that the venue manager was insisting on a minimum spend on the day but this wasn’t in my contract and the “no minimum spend” was what attracted me to the venue. It was eventually sorted but I think better communication would be appreciated next time.
