Frequently Asked Questions
What are the room hire costs for the Grubstreet Cellars spaces?
The Pasteur Room with Sample Room (part of Grubstreet Cellars) costs £5,615 ex VAT for a 7-hour hire period (07:00-14:00). This includes exclusive room hire, audio PA system, full event management support, complimentary cloakroom, Wi-Fi connectivity, LED lighting systems, and digital room signage. Additional costs include minimum AV spend of £1,000 ex VAT and security guards at £395 ex VAT each.
What catering packages are available for business events?
Day Delegate Rate packages start from £85 ex VAT per person (reduced from £115pp for certain bookings) and include Food Stall lunch with water and cordials, one coffee break, complimentary snacks, and iced water throughout the day. Additional coffee breaks can be added, and there are options for breakfast service and afternoon refreshments depending on your event requirements.
What AV equipment is included and what are the minimum spend requirements?
Basic audio PA system is included in room hire packages. However, there is a minimum AV spend requirement of £1,000 ex VAT for additional equipment such as projectors, screens, lecterns with microphones, mixer, tech support and install crew. The Cutting Room features a 98-inch screen as a fixed feature.
How many people can the Grubstreet Cellars accommodate for different event layouts?
The Grubstreet Cellars consists of three interconnecting spaces (Sample Room, Pasteur Room, Cutting Room) that can be used together or separately. Specific capacity numbers are not detailed in the available information, but the spaces are suitable for meetings, presentations, and business events with cabaret or theatre-style seating arrangements.
What are the security and fire marshal requirements?
Security guards/fire marshals are mandatory at £395 ex VAT per guard. The number required depends on your guest count - typically 1 guard per 100 guests for events, though this may vary based on event type and duration. For smaller business events, a minimum of 1-2 guards is usually required.
What are the standard hire hours and access times?
Standard business event packages typically run 07:00-17:30 for full day events or 07:00-14:00 for shorter events. Access for load-in can be arranged from 06:00-07:00 for events requiring setup time. Events must finish by the contracted end time with rooms cleared accordingly.
Can the three rooms in Grubstreet Cellars be hired separately or must they be taken together?
The Grubstreet Cellars spaces can be used in conjunction with each other, and the Pasteur Room is described as working alongside the Sample Room for events. The three rooms (Sample Room, Pasteur Room, Cutting Room) can be configured to provide separate areas for presentations, catering, and breakout sessions as needed for your business event.
What booking procedures apply and can dates be held?
The Brewery operates on a first-come, first-served basis and cannot hold dates without confirmed bookings, particularly for high-demand periods. For Christmas events specifically, they mention they "aren't able to hold dates for Christmas due to high demand." Alternative dates are offered when preferred dates are unavailable, sometimes on "2nd option" basis pending other bookings.
What technical support is available for business presentations?
A Brewery Technical Support Manager is available at £900 ex VAT for events requiring additional technical assistance. This is in addition to the basic audio PA system included in room hire and covers more complex AV setups, tech support throughout your event, and technical crew for installation and operation.
Are there any restrictions on external suppliers or catering?
The venue appears to operate primarily with in-house catering as part of their Day Delegate Rate packages. External supplier policies are not explicitly detailed in the available information, so this would need to be confirmed directly with the venue for specific requirements like specialized equipment or external catering needs.
