The venue itself is amazing, quirky and so fun! The staff where so kind and helpful and the golf was a cute little extra touch! We also got a cocktail made for us and a free jug on arrival!
I hosted my sisters Hen party here and it was such a fun night I can't recommend it more!
Nothing to dislike!

A great venue with amazing drinks and super yummy Pizza. I had my 40th Birthday there, my guests really enjoyed the drinks and loved the pizza. The technician was so kind and patient, did a great job of playing and queuing songs we provided, as well as TV and karaoke. Couldn't wish for a better evening.
The lighting was also atmospheric. Having access to outside and the pub room was great.
The staff were kind and helpful. They managed so many things as I was busy attending the guests.
My party was in the heat of the summer, so I guess no matter how strong the AC was, still the venue room with 30 people got really hot. The dress room was boiling like a sauna, but the rest was bearable, however imagine 30 people dancing, it gets hot anyways.
There is enough space for standing but if you are planning to sit or have a corner for taking photos, it's a bit tight. However it is still doable.

Easy to communicate with, great value for money, and lovely venue and people. 100% recommended to anyone, and would love to perform there again
I think 50 seated is a stretch. I think 40 seated is more correct. I sold out at a 45 limit and had some standing

Pizzas were tasty!' - Emma C. rated it 5/5 stars
