Hi,


I'm trying to organise a 40th Birthday party preferably in a private room/bar somewhere in central London (preferably within easy reach of SE22!)to include drinks, nibbles and dancing for up to 100 guests. I wondered if anyone had any recommendations. I'd be very grateful!


Thanks!

Try upstairs at Coach and Horses, the 'legendary' boozer off Old Compton Street. They used to, not a long time ago either, hire it out cheaply. They had a bar up there and can lay on sarnies etc. I don't think there is draft beer up there but there is bottles. You cannot take your booze from downstairs upstairs I have been told. They'll allow you to bring a DJ I understand.
I had mine at the Punch Tavern in Fleet Street earlier this year and really recommend it, no hire charge but a minimum spend of ?500 to have the whole pub exclusively to midnight, if you want a bar extension to 2 am it's a charge of ?50 for the licence and then a minimum spend of ?1,000. I didn't bother with the late licence but went to a nearby cheesy 80's club which opens to 3am but met the ?1k minimum spend with just 50 people so think it's a good deal. Also, they do food at really good value, starting at ?4 per head which offers a really good choice. They recommended a dj who I used, charge of ?250 or equally they are just as happy for you to bring your own music as they have a PA system in the bar. In addition, they decorate the pub for you with balloons, fairy lights, candles, flowers at no extra cost. Location is good as close to Blackfriars, Cannon St, London Bridge, City Thameslink so most people found it easy to get to. Can't recommend it enough.

Hi Madaba.

I think you will find a proper venue via this search form with wedding reception venues in London area. I think "wedding" venues also might be ok for such party. On this website wedding venues are also places ready for birthdays, conferences and so on;)

First: mark which part of London are you intrested in

Second: Select Capacities - 76?150

Third: mark Additional Criteria if required.

And then click Search.

Hope i helped;)

take care and good luck!

One more to throw into the pot: The Pontefract Castle in the Cellar Bar - St Christopher's Place/Wigmore Street. I've booked here before, choose your own music, no venue hire, no minimum spend, candle lit, comfy sofas, reasonably priced drinks and food.


Good luck!

Wow, the Doggett's food must have improved. I was there for a works Christmas party about 6 years ago and much of the food was slathered in cheap catering mayo. The resident DJ, who came complete with purple bubble wig, was shite too. Glad to hear they've sorted the catering out.

    • What was he doing on the stage at Glastonbury? Or on the stage at the other concert in Finsbury Park? Grinning like a Cheshire cat whilst pissed and stoned 20 somethings on the promise of free internet sung-- Oh Jeremy Corbyn---  What were his policies for Northern mining towns with no jobs or infrastructure? Free Internet and university places for youngsters. What were his other manifesto pledges? Why all the ambiguity over Brexit?  I didn't like Thatcher, Blair or May or Tony but I respected them as politicians because they stood by what they believed in. I respect all politicians across the board that stick to their principles. Corbyn didn't and its why he got  annihilated at the polls. A socialist, anti imperialist and anti capitalist that said he voted for an imperialist and pro capitalist cabal. He refused to say how he'd vote over and over again until the last knockings. He did so to appease the Islington elite and middle class students he was courting. The same people that were screaming that Brexit was racist. At the same time the EU were holding black and Asian immigrants in refugee camps overseas but not a word on that! Corbyn created and courted a student union protest movement that screamed at and shouted down anyone not on the left . They claimed Starmer and the centre right of labour were tories. He didn't get elected  because he, his movement and policies were unelectable, twice. He turned out not to have the convictions of his politics and died on his own sword.    Reform won't win an election. All the idiots that voted for them to keep out Labour actually enabled Labour. They'll be back voting tory next time.    Farage wouldn't be able to make his millions if he was in power. He's a very devious shyster but I very much doubt he'd actually want the responsibility that governance requires.
    • The purge of hard left members that were part of Corbyn's, Mcdonnel's and Lansmans momentum that purged the party of right wing and centrist members. That's politics. It's what Blair did to win, its what Starmer had to do to win. This country doesn't vote in extreme left or right governments. That's partly why Corbyn lost  We're pretty much a centrist bunch.  It doesn't make it false either. It's an opinion based on the voting patterns, demography and statistics. Can you explain then why former mining constituencies that despise the tories voted for them or abstained rather than vote for Corbyns Labour?  What is the truth then? But he never got elected!!! Why? He should have been binned off there and then. Why he was allowed to hang about is an outrage. I hold him party responsible for the shit show that we've had to endure since. 
    • Depends on what the Barista says doesnt it? There was no physical confrontation with the driver, OP thinks she is being targetted when she isnt. These guys work min wage under strict schedules so give them a break unless they damage your stuff
