Frequently asked questions
What are the payment terms and when are deposits due?
A 50% deposit is required upon signing the contract, with the remaining 50% due 30 days before your event. All catering costs for food and beverages must be pre-ordered and settled before the event to cover staffing costs.
Can I bring my own caterer or do I have to use the in-house 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 mandatory £3,000 kitchen buyout fee, which may not be cost-effective for smaller events.
What are the room hire rates for different spaces?
The Great Room costs £5,000 plus VAT for a 4-hour period, with additional hours at £1,250 plus VAT per hour. The Chairmans Room is £200 per hour plus VAT, and the Court of Quarter is £125-150 per hour plus VAT.
Are there additional mandatory costs beyond room hire?
Yes, additional costs may include security (rates vary by event), furniture removal (£670-915 plus VAT), and cleaning fees (£92-450 plus VAT depending on the space and event size). These are typically mandatory for larger events.
Is there step-free access available for guests with mobility needs?
Yes, the Dining Room has lift access directly from street level and accessible toilets. This makes the venue suitable for guests who require step-free access.
Can multiple events run simultaneously at the venue?
Yes, the venue can host multiple events at the same time in different spaces. They provide security, signage, and guest check-in services to direct attendees to the correct areas and manage any potential overlap between events.
What are the typical event timings and end times?
Events typically run until 9pm for smaller gatherings, though larger events in spaces like the Great Room and Bar can run until 11:30pm. The venue is flexible with timing but will brief their team on guest direction and event logistics.
How does the booking process work and what information do I need to provide?
To secure your booking, you'll need to provide your email address and company details. The venue will then draw up a contract breaking down all costs, and you can arrange a site visit to view the space and confirm smaller details before finalizing.
What catering options are available for drinks and networking events?
The in-house catering team Blue Strawberry can provide welcome drinks, canapes, cocktails, food stations, and beverages throughout your event. They offer custom quotes based on guest numbers and can accommodate both casual networking events and more formal receptions.
Can I book meeting rooms through an app for smaller gatherings?
Yes, meeting room bookings can be made via the Knotel app at app.knotel.com where you can choose suitable days, times, and view availability. For groups of 15-18 people, the Chairmans Room (22 capacity) is recommended.
