Frequently asked questions
What are the minimum spend requirements for different group sizes at SUSHISAMBA Covent Garden?
Group bookings start from £150 per person in December. For semi-private dining (up to 80 guests across multiple tables), the minimum spend is £15,000-£18,000 including VAT, excluding 15% service charge. For exclusive hire of the entire venue (up to 300 standing or 116 seated), minimum spends range from £25,000-£45,000 excluding VAT and service charge.
What capacity limits apply to the dining spaces and how are they configured?
The semi-private dining area accommodates up to 80 guests across multiple tables with drinks reception space near the sushi counter. For exclusive hire, the venue holds 300 guests standing or 116 seated. The semi-private area is bookable two months in advance and operates from 6pm until close.
What additional mandatory costs should I budget for beyond the minimum spend?
All minimum spends exclude a mandatory 15-18% service charge. For exclusive hire events, additional charges apply for security (£300 for 2 additional security personnel) and furniture removal (up to £2,000-£3,000 including VAT depending on requirements and final guest numbers). No venue hire fees are charged.
How far in advance can I book and what are the hold policies?
Semi-private dining areas are bookable two months in advance. Dates are only held upon specific request and require confirmation within tight timeframes - in some cases confirmation is required by 4pm the following day for events the next week. The venue does not automatically hold dates without a formal request.
What are the operating hours and timing restrictions for events?
Semi-private dining operates from 6pm until close. For exclusive hire, evening events typically run 18:00 to midnight, though lunch events (12:00-16:00) are also available. The venue can accommodate extended hours but this may incur additional costs for security and staffing.
Are there different pricing structures for different days of the week or seasons?
Yes, pricing varies significantly by date and season. December events command higher minimums (£150 per person for group bookings). Exclusive hire minimums range from £25,000 to £45,000 excluding VAT depending on the specific date and demand, with some quotes showing service charges at 15% and others at 18%.
What setup options are available for the dining space?
The semi-private area includes multiple tables for dining plus drinks reception space near the sushi counter. For exclusive hire, tables can be removed to create open layout for standing receptions, though booth seating remains as part of the fixed layout. Furniture removal incurs additional charges of up to £2,000-£3,000 including VAT.
What happens if my budget doesn't meet the minimum spend requirements?
The venue strictly enforces minimum spend requirements and will decline bookings that don't meet them. For example, budgets under £2,500 for small groups or under £45,000 for exclusive hire will be rejected. The venue may suggest alternative arrangements or recommend finding another venue if budget flexibility isn't possible.
What food and beverage options are included in the minimum spend?
The minimum spend covers food and beverages from SUSHISAMBA's menu, which features Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian cuisine including robata grill items. Canapé menus and beverage books are available for events. The venue caters to various dietary preferences and can accommodate halal and vegetarian requirements.
Is there a smaller private space available for intimate events?
Yes, SUSHISAMBA Covent Garden has a speakeasy bar that accommodates up to 30 guests standing. This hidden, intimate space is ideal for networking events and private parties with a minimum spend of £2,500 including VAT, excluding 15% service charge. This space operates for 3-hour evening slots (18:30-21:30).
