CELEBRATIONS
We’re all about great parties! From birthdays and engagements to Christmas gatherings and casual get-togethers, we know how to make it memorable. Our space is flexible and can scale up or down depending on whether you want to run a large event or an intimate gathering.
We have two areas which can be booked individually for your private event or combined for exclusive use of the entire venue. In each area you will have control over the music and atmosphere, turn it into your own personalised party!
We charge no hire fee!
Depending on the time and date there may be a minimum spend. We can provide a quote once you provide us details for your event. To lock the date in, we require a 20% deposit of the minimum spend amount.
We have a full kitchen and can provide food for any budget or occasions. Check out our menus here:
