Party · 35 guests · April 2026
Our wedding reception here was truly an excellent experience from start to finish. The rooftop and private terrace are absolutely stunning and were easily the highlight of the venue – it created such a special atmosphere that our guest loved. There was also ample space for both dining and dancing as well as enjoying some cocktails outside. The venue itself feels polished, elegant and a little bit exclusive, which made the whole evening feel even more memorable. The staff were fantastic throughout – friendly, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile. The bartenders in particular were brilliant and added such a warm, relaxed energy to the evening. Communication in the lead-up to the wedding was also excellent; the team were responsive, organised, and very accommodating with our requests and all the external suppliers like the florist and baker. We really appreciated how open they were to incorporating personal touches, including some traditions which meant a lot to us. The location is also very convenient, just a couple of minutes from Brixton station and a short walk from Lambeth Town Hall where we had our ceremony. The food overall was very enjoyable, and the team guided us well on quantities. Everything was set up exactly as planned, including our slideshow and playlists, which made the day feel seamless and stress-free. Would 100% recommend booking your private hire in the Roseberry room it was a blast!
If we had to suggest one improvement, it would be to expand the food variety slightly, particularly for vegetarian and vegan options!

The venue is beautiful, the staff are lovely, the food is good and so are the drinks. Booking was easy, both Sabrina and Priscilla made the process very straightforward and chilled. Will definitely be looking to use the space again.

Venue was beautiful and the service was great!
A bit difficult to find the entrance (but not too much of an issue)
