Middle Temple is unavailable for private events Tuesday through Friday due to Hall Lunches taking place on these days. This significantly restricts availability for corporate dining events during weekdays.

External caterers are not permitted at Middle Temple. The venue only offers in-house catering, though they do have specific approved Asian caterers for events requiring specialized cuisine, which incurs a kitchen buy-out fee of £5,000 + VAT (£6,000 including VAT).

Queen's Room and other dining spaces do not have built-in AV equipment. All audio-visual requirements must be hired from the venue's accredited suppliers list, which includes AV production, lighting, and sound equipment providers.

The venue offers to hold dates pending confirmation and provides detailed proposals as starting points for customization. Minimum guest requirements apply (20 for some packages, 55 for others). All pricing is subject to VAT, and the venue provides comprehensive event management and staffing as part of their packages.
