40th Birthday Party · 40 guests · February 2026 · Boulogne Bar

The room is a proper bar/cocktail lounge, doesn't feel like a generic room above a pub as some do. The staff were great and really helpful. The drinks and food were fab. Everyone had a blast. Really great venue for 30-60 people.

closes at 12, could have stayed all night!

About Boulogne Bar

Boulogne Bar is a Trusted Tagvenue Partner, validated by the Tagvenue team with a record of successful bookings on the platform.

Boulogne Bar is a cocktail bar occupying the separate upper room of a Victorian pub, presenting a contained, cocktail-focused setting that contrasts with the ground-floor public bar.

Venue highlights: The upstairs room operates as a self-contained event area with its own service bar and a layout that accommodates music and dancing. The drinks programme focuses on cocktails and the venue supplies in-house catering that includes extensive vegan and vegetarian options.

Best for: Birthday celebrations, cocktail receptions, and after-work or evening parties that include music.

Location: Kentish Town sits on a busy high street known for its cluster of pubs and small live-music venues, providing plenty of nearby options for guests to continue the night.

What guests say: The Boulogne Bar's upstairs room is consistently described as a distinct, well-laid-out area separate from the pub below.
