Frequently asked questions

What insurance cover is needed for a private dining event?
Secure at least £5 million public liability insurance. If you’re bringing external caterers or AV suppliers, confirm they hold a minimum of £2 million each. Always check certificates 2–4 weeks before the event date.
Which Manchester districts have central private dining rooms for 100?
Spinningfields, Deansgate and the Northern Quarter feature multiple restaurant private dining suites within 200–300 m of tram stops and major car parks. All offer 24-hour transport links and nearby accommodation options for attendees.
What room size do I need for 100 diners?
Allow 1.2–1.5 m2 per person. For 100 guests you’ll need c. 120–150 sqm of clear floor space. This accommodates tables, aisles (1.2 m minimum), service stations and AV equipment without feeling cramped.
How long does it take to set up private dining for 100 people?
Allocate 2–3 hours pre-event for furniture, tableware and AV install, plus 1 hour for catering rehearsal. Total set-up time of 3–4 hours ensures tables are dressed, tech tested and staff briefed before arrival.
What budget is needed for a three-course menu for 100 guests?
Plan £40–£70 per head for a three-course menu. Add a drinks package at £20–£30, then include a room hire fee of £800–£1,200. Total event cost typically falls between £9,000 and £11,000.
Which AV facilities are essential for a 100-person private dining room?
Ensure a ceiling-mounted projector or 75" screen, lapel and handheld microphones, a 50 W PA system, mixer and reliable Wi-Fi. Request HDMI, VGA and wireless presentation clicks as standard to avoid on-the-day tech hitches.
How can I keep the atmosphere intimate with 100 guests?
Use softer LED uplighting, fabric drapes and low-centrepiece arrangements to break up sightlines. Opt for round tables of 10 or long harvest tables, limit guest count to 100 per 150 sqm, and stagger arrival times to avoid lobby congestion.
What table layout works best for 100 guests in a private dining room?
Use ten 1.8 m round tables seating 10 each, with 1.2 m aisles to maintain intimacy. Round layouts foster conversation; allow 1.5 m2 per person so 100 guests require c. 150 sqm. This balances guest comfort with an exclusive feel.
What dietary options should I plan for 100 diners?
Based on typical needs, allocate 20% vegetarian, 10% vegan, 10% gluten-free, 5% nut-free and 55% standard menu. Confirm final counts 14 days ahead to accommodate special diets and ensure kitchen can segregate prep areas.
What is the typical cost per head for private dining in Manchester?
Expect £80–£120 per person for a three-course set menu with half-bottle of wine, room hire and basic AV. Premium menus with upgraded drinks or bespoke service can reach £150+ per head.

Unique Venue of the Month: The Attendant

If we said our Unique Venue of the Month for March was a restaurant inside a public toilet, you would probably start to think we've (finally) lost it here at Hire Space. Well...our Unique Venue of the Month is a restaurant inside a public toilet. But it's not what it seems. Hear us out. The Attendant [https://hirespace.com/Spaces/London/8941/Attendant/Whole-Venue/Events] was originally a Victorian public gents' bathroom in Fitzrovia, built in 1890. It was mothballed and made spick-and-span in
