This venue was great for me and 40 friends to celebrate my birthday. We could play our own music, bring our own DJ and decorate how we wanted. The staff were very helpful and friendly when we arrived to set up and event helped with decorating. Bar service was good throughout the night, no long waits. Very memorable and fun night would definitely hire again.

We had slight problems with the sound system but eventually the owner helped out and solved the problem. Glass on the floor when we arrived but was cleaned up when we raised it

Habib, Kevin, Roberto, and rest of the staff were fantastic! I had a birthday event there and it was a great time.

Managers can take a while to respond sometimes.

Organised a surprise 30th birthday party for my boyfriend and the party was a huge success! The venue looked super cool and was a good size for 60 people. I wanted the party to have a club vibe and it definitely did, as there was a DJ booth and bar. Setting up the sound equipment was straightforward for my DJ friends and the sound quality was good, so many people were dancing just like I had hoped. The staff were very friendly and helpful. I was allowed to bring a cake and provide finger food (i..e crisps) for the guests, and also decorate the area with a few balloones. I also paid a fee for all the guests to receive one free cocktail, which they all loved. The location was also great. Central and very easy to get to from the tube station. Would highly recommend this venue for a big private private party.
