Hired the Gallery for my leaving drinks, staff were very responsive (Eva and Ellie were great), our bartender was amazing and kept up with the demand, room was as described, and the night went as smoothly as could be. Great location, parking available and I would definitely use this venue again or recommend it.

Card only (this wasn’t explained before).

The entire team were so friendly and helpful. The manger really looked after as did the team and made sure we had a perfect event.

Lovely decor of the room, enough seating and liked being able to have own music/bar

Only one person on the bar meant slow service so some of my guests went to the mezzanine bar to get drinks, still hit the minimum spend however so didn't matter too much
