Private Dining Venue Hire
These venues are ideal for drinks receptions or parties on an exclusive basis, or just hiring a private room or space in a bar or restaurant. However, they can also be used as quirky venues for a meeting or presentation if you are looking for something a little different.
Restaurants
There are 4 different ways you can book a Restaurant for an event
Chef’s Table
Restaurants with private chef’s tables allow your guests to enjoy the theatre of the kitchen and often meet the chef and his brigade. Chef’s tables usually accommodate smaller private dining groups and are often separated from the kitchen by a glass partition, which literally provides a window to all the activity going on behind the scenes to create the dining experience that you are all enjoying.
Semi-Private Dining
Semi-private dining strikes a balance between enjoying the overall atmosphere of a restaurant and having a dedicated space for a group. The area is partially secluded from other diners usually by a curtain, door or alcove, providing a level of privacy for the group.
Private Dining
A private dining room is a separate, enclosed space within a restaurant that is reserved for exclusive use by a specific group for an event. This space offers privacy and can be tailored to meet the needs of the event, making it an ideal choice for all types of events.
Exclusive Use
By hiring a Restaurant exclusively doesn’t mean you are then tied to hosting a full sit-down dinner – you could host a drinks reception or company party. Food can be adapted to offer informal options such as canapes and bowl food.

Bars
Atmosphere
Bars typically have a ready-made atmosphere, whether it’s cozy, trendy, or sophisticated it means you can select a bar that fits the vibe you are aiming for.
Ideal For
The relaxed environment of a bar encourages mingling and social interaction meaning guests feel more comfortable. This makes them perfect for networking events or casual gatherings.
Food & Drink
Many bars offer drinks and food packages that can be cost effective. Bars typically offer a diverse selection of beverages, including cocktails, craft beers, and premium spirits, covering all tastes.
Space
You can book private rooms in some bars meaning that you have an exclusive area without a huge hire cost. Alternatively, a semi-private space can be reserved which means you can enjoy the atmosphere of the main bar but have an area just for your group.
Entertainment
Many bars offer live music, DJs, or other entertainment options. Some bars have pool tables, dartboards, or other games that can add an element of fun to your event.
Well Known
Hosting your event at a well-known bar can make it more memorable and unique compared to a standard event hall or banquet room.
The Vibe!
Bars often have interesting decor or design elements that can serve as great backdrops for photos, adding to the lasting memories of the event. That ‘Instagram’ moment!
