Frequently Asked Questions
What are the venue hire costs for the Business space and what's included?

The Great Hall accommodates up to 150 guests for conferences in theatre-style seating. For seated dining events, capacity is typically 70-120 guests depending on table configuration. The space can be configured for cabaret-style, theatre-style, or standing reception formats.
What are the mandatory staff meal costs that must be added to every booking?
Hall staff meals are mandatory for all events - up to 5 staff members require feeding at £35 ex VAT per person for junior outmess or £48 ex VAT per person for senior outmess. This cost is in addition to your quoted event pricing and cannot be waived.
Can I bring my own caterer or are there catering restrictions?
External caterers are not permitted - Saddlers Hall uses exclusive caterer Searcys for all events. All food and beverage must be provided through their in-house catering services, with no exceptions for outside suppliers.
What AV equipment is available and what are the costs?
AV equipment is not kept on-site and must be outsourced to their recommended supplier. Basic packages start around £400-£480 ex VAT and can include projectors, screens, microphones, and sound systems depending on requirements.

Are there any restrictions on event timing or days of the week?
Events typically run from 5:30pm-11pm for evening functions, though daytime events from 9am-5pm are also accommodated. The venue appears to operate seven days a week, though availability varies significantly by date and advance booking is essential.
What additional spaces are available beyond the Great Hall?
