Barts: The Ultimate 1929 Prohibition-Era Speakeasy for Exclusive Chelsea Events
Barts is not just a venue; it is a radically immersive, clandestine escape into the heart of the 1929 Prohibition era, making it the premier choice for exclusive private parties, sophisticated drinks receptions, unique corporate gatherings, and top-tier mixology experiences in Chelsea. Step into the shadow-lit hideout of “Uncle Barts,” where the combination of vintage furnishings and a speakeasy atmosphere promises a sultry evening of hedonism and mystery.
The unique ambience is enhanced by crafty cocktail offerings and a bar service that includes expertly waiter-served drinks, with the alcohol license availability varying by the day to suit your event’s needs perfectly. The furnishing, inspired entirely by the prohibition era, can be easily rearranged to create additional floor space, allowing for flexible event flow. Catering seamlessly complements the clandestine setting, with options including delectable canapé and bowl food menus or a sophisticated small plates menu for guests to enjoy.
For entertainment, Barts is fully equipped with quality audio equipment, including microphones and speakers, and provides a DJ desk for hired talent. Guests have the fun option of bringing their own music via a shared Spotify playlist. The venue is highly adaptable for various acts, welcoming live bands, magicians, and other bespoke entertainment options for an additional charge, while visual equipment can also be added at an extra cost. Due to the historical nature of the building, the venue does not offer wheelchair access, though assistance can be provided to guests with sight or hearing impairments. All guests must adhere to a smart/casual dress code and must be 21 and over to enter, ensuring a mature and exclusive atmosphere. This clandestine spot is conveniently located near major transport hubs like Sloane Square and South Kensington Station.
