What are the payment terms and timeline for booking the Dining Room?
Payment is required in two installments: 50% due upon signing the contract and the remaining 50% due 30 days before your event. All catering for food and beverages must be pre-ordered and settled before the event as this covers all staffing costs.
Can I bring my own caterer or must I use the in-house catering team?
The venue prefers all catering to be provided by their in-house team, Blue Strawberry. If you want to bring an outside caterer, there is a £3,000 kitchen buyout fee, which may not be cost-effective for smaller events.
Does the Dining Room have accessible facilities and step-free access?
Yes, the Dining Room has lift access from street level that takes you directly to the space, and there are accessible toilets available. This makes the venue fully accessible for guests with mobility requirements.
What is the setup of the Dining Room and what makes it suitable for private dining?
The Dining Room features round tables which are ideal for small group discussions and intimate dining experiences. The room can be set up as a boardroom during the day and transformed into a stunning private dining room for evening events.
Are drinks handled by the caterer or charged separately through the venue?
All drinks are managed through the in-house catering team, Blue Strawberry, as part of the overall catering package. This is included in the pre-event settlement that covers all staffing costs.
Can events in the Dining Room run simultaneously with other events in the venue?
Yes, the venue can host multiple events simultaneously. The Dining Room is positioned away from other spaces like the Great Room and Bar, which helps minimize noise interference between events.
What security and guest management services are provided?
The venue provides security staff during events and can arrange signage to direct guests to your specific room. They can also manage guest check-in at entry to ensure proper direction to the Dining Room.
What catering options are available for private dining events?
The in-house catering team can provide various options including welcome drinks with canapés, food stations for more substantial options, and beverages throughout events. They offer water, tea, coffee, and can arrange alcoholic and non-alcoholic options on tables, with custom quotes available based on guest numbers.
How far in advance should I book and what is the booking process?
Site visits can be arranged within a couple of weeks of inquiry, and the venue recommends confirming bookings promptly once you're ready to proceed. The booking process involves contract signing with the payment schedule, followed by coordination with the catering team for menu planning.
What are the key features that make the Dining Room special for private events?
The Dining Room offers natural daylight, round table seating perfect for intimate conversations, and the grandeur that makes it suitable for both business lunches and celebratory dinners. It can transform from a daytime boardroom setup to an elegant private dining space for evening events.
