Pub · 50 guests · August 2026 · Bar Room

This pub was the perfect location for our event. We used the back room with access to the outside. Pizza and platters were delicious and the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. We had a great night and everyone commented on the lovely venue. They allowed me to decorate the room. Couldn’t have been better

Event Space · 60 guests · July 2026 · Bar Room

We had a large group for a pre-graduation drinks reception with friends and family of all ages in the back room and everyone had an amazing time! The pub's layout was perfect with a mix of ground floor seating and standing and the ability to spill out into the outdoor seating area as well. Pete and his staff provided excellent service and were very flexible and responsive. The surrounding neighborhood is very calm and not too busy but also not far from the tube which was nice as well. Everyone in our group will be talking about this event for a while to come. I would 10/10 recommend and we will definitely be back for a pint!

Nothing!
