The Wren Tavern

The Business space (5CC Cocktail Bar) requires minimum spends of £1,000 plus 12.5% service charge for smaller bookings, £3,500 plus 12.5% service charge for larger events (around 130 guests), or £500 for intimate gatherings of 20 people. All minimum spends are on food and drinks combined.

The Business space can accommodate up to 130 guests for standing drinks reception. It features a mixture of booth seating and standing areas, exposed brickwork, low lighting with a speakeasy feel, and plants throughout the space.

A deposit of 50% of the minimum spend is required to secure the booking (e.g., £500 for a £1,000 minimum spend event, £1,000 for larger events). The deposit counts towards your final bill or can be refunded the next working day if you meet your minimum spend commitment.

The space includes a projector screen that requires an HDMI or VGA compatible device. You can play your own music or hire a DJ, and there are entertainment options available including live bands, drag artists, and magicians at additional cost.

All food and drink pre-orders must be submitted at least 7 days prior to your event, along with any allergies or dietary requirements. The venue offers canapes, sharing platters, and various drink packages to accommodate different dietary needs.

No hire fees are charged for use of the Business space. You only pay the minimum spend commitment on food and drinks, plus the mandatory 12.5% service charge.

The space includes a private fully stocked bar with a dedicated bar team for the evening. You can set up a bar tab upon arrival, though drink vouchers are only available for private hire bookings.

Bookings can be made through online payment links with confirmation typically provided within 24 hours. You'll need to provide your full address for the contract, any special equipment requirements, and guest numbers for proper planning.

Events typically run from 6:00pm to 8:30pm for after-work drinks, though longer bookings until 11:00pm are available. The venue can accommodate various timing preferences depending on your event needs.

Yes, The Perch is a semi-private space that holds 60 people standing with a £600 minimum spend plus 12.5% service charge. It features booth seating but has fewer amenities than the main Business space.
