What food and beverage restrictions apply to private events?
Outside food and drink are strictly prohibited - all catering must be purchased through the venue. The minimum spend requirement applies only to food and beverages purchased from Century Club. A mandatory 15% service charge is added to all food and beverage purchases, and all menu items are subject to seasonal availability and price changes.

How far in advance do I need to book and what is the payment process?
Booking timelines vary based on availability, with some dates booking months in advance. Once you confirm your event details, the venue sends a payment link to secure the room. For catering, working lunch pre-orders must be submitted by the Wednesday before your event date, and all food and beverage charges are settled on the day of the event.
Are there any budget thresholds or events the venue cannot accommodate?
Century Club operates as an exclusive hire venue with minimum spend requirements starting from £3,000 for smaller spaces up to £20,000+ for larger events. The venue explicitly states they cannot accommodate requests where "the budget is too low" and will decline bookings that don't meet their pricing thresholds.
What makes Century Club different from other event venues in terms of exclusivity?
Century Club operates as a private members club offering exclusive hire only - no shared spaces or public access during your event. Located at 61-63 Shaftesbury Avenue in Soho, it bills itself as London's 'Best Kept Secret' with over four floors of private spaces including Soho's largest roof terrace, ensuring complete privacy and discretion for your celebration.
What dining options are available for cocktail parties and celebrations?
The venue offers various catering formats including canapés, bowl food, working lunch menus, and full restaurant dining. You can pre-order fresh pastries for £4.50 each, book tables in the main restaurant with 20% off food, or arrange in-room catering. All menus change monthly and are subject to seasonal availability with potential substitutions due to supplier availability.
