Birthday Dinner · 32 guests · September 2025
My experience at Glass Garden was amazing!I dealt directly with Hoti and he was helpful from beginning to end. My best and favourite private dining experience by far. Food and drink was amazing, and on time too! The team helping on this night were especially helpful too. Honestly 10/10.

Marquee Wedding · 40 guests · July 2025
Hoti was a great coordinator of events. Everything ran smoothly, and he worked very well with me, especially in the planning process. He provided valuable advice on how to utilise the deposit/minimum spend. He was also very accommodating in terms of flexibility regarding when to serve the food. The staff was also great and very accommodating. The venue itself is gorgeous. The overhead glass ceiling brought in great light - especially during the summer time. We also had a speaker and microphone to use if we wanted to. The venue is partially decorated, so there isn't much needed to make the place look nice. The food also tasted really good. Overall, great space and a great team to work with. I had a great time!
The area can get very hot, especially with the number of people and the heat from keeping the buffet warm. The side door can be opened, but it is still hot. It would be worth getting an air conditioning machine or something. It would also be nice to dim the lights a little bit, but not crazy. The place is relatively expensive, so bear in mind when having to reach a minimum spend of £1.2K.
