The space is beautiful, the staff are amazing. We had such a fantastic evening celebrating with our family & friends. Nothing was too much trouble. They looked after our wedding cake, helped us pack up what was left at the end, supported our DJ getting set up. We’d really like to shout out Sinead and Ray for just being the best, they are professional, friendly & so supportive.

The view is absolutely amazing, staff were so friendly, can’t fault anything.
It was somewhat difficult at first to get responses via email but not for long. All staff we spoke with were lovely and helpful.

We recently held a 50th birthday party at this venue and were extremely impressed. The staff were friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond. Communication throughout the planning process was excellent, making everything stress-free and well organised. The food was great, we asked for snacks and finger food and they laid it all out like a buffet which was just what we wanted. It’s on the top floor with a lift so very accessible to all. You get your own loos and your own bar staff. The décor is stylish and the great river views from the terrace really added an extra touch. You can bring your own decor so long as you don’t tape anything to the walls. We would highly recommend this venue for any special occasion.
Not much to dislike - it was honestly quite close to perfect for what we needed.
