Engagement Party · 70 guests · September 2024
Perfect venue for a private party. Loads of room, private bar and really friendly and helpful staff. Can connect your own music and put up decorations. Drinks prices aren’t too expensive, and the team were helpful with limiting the tab to house spirits etc. the pub in general is nicely decorated and has a nice vibe. They also responded quickly in the lead up. We had a great time - thank you for hosting us!!!!
We had a few people come downstairs as there weren’t any signs saying it was a private party. Also be aware that ‘fully functioning DJ booth’ doesn’t include decks, you have to bring your own.

This venue was great value for money. The minimum spend for the Saturday afternoon was £800 which after a burger and welcome drink each we hit, and then spent more on the day. We were allowed decorations, played our own music and some hen party games. The team were super friendly and flexible. The private space had its own bar too.
