Capacity
The venue publishes a maximum of 100 seated, 180 standing reception. Those are top figures for an empty room. A dance floor, a stage, a buffet or a photo booth each take space, so plan on fewer guests than the maximum once your layout is drawn.
A useful rule: a seated dinner at rounds of ten needs about 1 to 1.2 square metres per guest, a standing reception about 0.7, and theatre seating about 0.6, before you add a stage or dance floor. The venue capacity calculator does the arithmetic for your room.
Events it hosts
According to its own event pages, the venue hosts private social events.

- Is the private room fully closed off, or will other diners pass through?
- What is the minimum spend for the room on your date and time?
- Can you set a fixed menu, and how far ahead must final numbers be confirmed?
- Is there space and power for a microphone, a screen or a performer?

Planning entertainment here
Private dining rooms suit close-up entertainment: a strolling magician, a caricaturist or a solo musician. Check that there is room for the performer to move between tables without blocking service.
Send every performer’s technical needs to the venue before you book: floor space, ceiling height, power, sound and changing room.
Getting there
Check the venue website for directions, parking rates and accessible entrances, and send the details to guests with the invitation.
