Question 1

What are the capacity limits and minimum spend requirements for the Dining space?

Accepted Answer

The Dining space can accommodate up to 50 guests for seated dining. There is no specific minimum spend mentioned for the Dining space itself in the source material, though other spaces at the venue have minimum spends ranging from £1,250 to £23,400 including VAT depending on the area and event type. A 13% discretionary service charge applies to all final bills and does not contribute toward any minimum spend requirements.

Question 2

What deposit and payment terms are required to secure a booking?

Accepted Answer

Payment terms vary by space and event type. For most bookings, 50% of the minimum spend plus any hire fees are required upfront along with a signed contract. The remainder of the minimum spend must be paid at least 30 days prior to the event. For some smaller events, a £500 deposit toward pre-orders may be accepted instead.

Question 3

What catering options and pricing are available for private dining events?

Accepted Answer

Searcys offers seasonally inspired menus using fresh British produce, with prices starting from £50 per person for the Classic 3-course menu. Options include canapés, bowl food, sharing platters, and full seasonal menus with possibilities to upgrade to Soirée or Deluxe options. All menus are subject to seasonal changes and can accommodate dietary requirements including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options.

Question 4

Are there restrictions on music, entertainment, or external suppliers?

Accepted Answer

Music restrictions apply depending on the space booked. For semi-private areas within the main Brasserie or Champagne Bar, music is not allowed as it would interfere with regular service in other areas. For exclusive hire of the full Brasserie, entertainment including DJs, bands, and external artists can be arranged but are charged separately. The venue works with various external suppliers and can help coordinate entertainment.

Question 5

What facilities and equipment are included with the Dining space?

Accepted Answer

The Dining space includes access to the bar, dedicated event management, and a dedicated team. For meeting-style events, facilities can include plasma screens, Wi-Fi access, flipcharts on request, Searcys branded notepads and pencils, and bottled still and sparkling water replenished throughout the day. Additional AV equipment may be available but specific details would need to be confirmed.

Question 6

What are the operating hours and time restrictions for events?

Accepted Answer

Event times vary by space and type. Semi-private dining events typically run during restaurant operating hours. The Champagne Lounge operates until 22:00 (closing time), while other spaces may accommodate events until 23:00 or later. For exclusive hire events, extended hours until 01:00 may be possible. Specific timing restrictions depend on the chosen space and event requirements.

Question 7

Is there cloakroom service and what additional services are included?

Accepted Answer

Cloakroom service availability depends on the type of booking. For semi-private events within the restaurant, cloakroom service is not available. However, for exclusive hire of the full Brasserie, cloakroom service is included along with dedicated event planning, guest list check-in, full staffing, and security. Additional services may incur separate charges.

Question 8

Can external decorations be brought in and are there setup restrictions?

Accepted Answer

The source material does not explicitly state policies regarding external decorations or setup restrictions for the Dining space. Given that some spaces are semi-private areas within the operating restaurant, decoration options may be limited to avoid interfering with regular service. Specific decoration and setup policies would need to be confirmed directly with the venue.

Question 9

What is the cancellation policy and booking flexibility?

Accepted Answer

The source material does not provide specific cancellation policy details. However, bookings require signed contracts and upfront deposits ranging from £500 to 50% of minimum spend depending on the event type. Given the advance payment requirements and contract obligations, cancellation terms would likely be outlined in the signed agreement.

Question 10

Are there different pricing structures for different days of the week?

Accepted Answer

Yes, pricing varies by day of the week for some spaces. For exclusive Brasserie hire, the minimum spend is £14,400 including VAT for Tuesday or Wednesday events, while Thursday events require £16,400 including VAT minimum spend. Weekend and other weekday pricing may differ, and semi-private spaces may have different rate structures entirely.
