Private hire

Take the
whole room.

The booking hall seats twenty-eight at one long table or holds forty-five standing. You get the room, the bar, the kitchen and the record player, and we close the doors to everyone else.

We've done birthdays, book launches, a wake, two staff Christmases and one very quiet proposal. The room is loud when it's full, which is usually the point.
