Great communication throughout, very accommodating to hosting a pub quiz. Had our own bar up and running, sound system and tv worked well.
Was advised it would seat 47 but realistically 35 was the max!

Pub · 30 guests · March 2026
The room was the perfect size and atmosphere for a birthday party of 30 people. We decorated the room with a few balloons and banners, had our own music on, used the TV for the rugby, and set up a few games like beer pong. The ease of booking was amazing, and having our own private bar really made a difference to the group. Would absolutely book or visit again. Live music at 22:00 was fantastic downstairs too. And the food was great.
Can’t fault it!

Booking the venue and discussing the event detail went pretty smooth. The response was fast and very informative. During the event the staff was very helpful and attentive. Our guests enjoyed the event and the catering was good. Highly recommend the Orwell Room for private events.
