Frequently asked questions
What are the minimum spend requirements for wedding events at AMANO Covent Garden?
Minimum spend varies by space and date: The Onyx Room requires £10,000-£15,000, Rooftop Bar requires £18,000, and Penelope's Restaurant requires £16,000. All minimum spends are plus 12.5% service charge and include 20% VAT. These amounts must be spent on food and beverages only.
What are the capacity limits for wedding receptions at each space?
The Onyx Room accommodates 150 guests for standing reception only, Rooftop Bar holds maximum 120 for standing reception only, and Penelope's Restaurant seats 130 for dinner or 180 for standing reception. All spaces are private hire only for weddings.
What are the operating hours and licensing restrictions for wedding events?
Events typically run 6pm-1am with last bar orders 12:15-12:30am, and spaces must be cleared by 1am due to licensing. Organizers can access earlier for setup, and some events may start from 4:30pm depending on arrangements.
How long are pricing quotes valid and what deposit is required?
All pricing quotes are valid for only 5 working days and subject to availability changes. For groups of 25+ guests, a 25% deposit is required based on guest count and chosen menu (e.g., 25% of 30 x £70 set menus). Dates are only held upon specific request.
What entertainment options are available and what are the additional costs?
Entertainment is charged separately based on artist fees. DJs that the venue collaborates with charge £500 for 4-hour performances. The venue provides microphones for speeches free of charge, and all spaces include AV equipment.
Can furniture be rearranged to create space for dancing?
Yes, loose furniture can be removed to create dance floor space. The venue is flexible with room layouts and can discuss potential options during site visits, which are available Monday-Friday 11am-5pm.
What catering style is offered and are there dietary accommodations?
The venue offers Spanish and Middle Eastern fusion cuisine with a sharing concept where food is served in multiple shareable plates rather than individual portions. Menus can be modified to accommodate dietary requirements if informed in advance.
Are there any commission fees for bookings made through event planners?
Yes, there is a 10% commission on the final NET amount plus VAT, excluding service charge. This commission does not apply to cancellations, entertainment, decoration, or any external hire costs.
What are the setup access times and space clearing requirements?
Organizers and crew can be granted access earlier than guest arrival times for setup (typically from 3pm for events starting at 5pm). All spaces must be completely cleared by the licensed end time, with no flexibility on this requirement.
What AV equipment is included and what are the technical capabilities?
All event spaces include 55" screens, AV equipment, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, projectors, and microphones. The Onyx Room specifically includes projector and microphone capabilities for speeches, with all technical equipment provided at no additional charge.
