Clockhouse - ?500 for a 2 year old children's party?


Ladysaw

Recommended Posts

So I am still in shock horror at the quote to have my daughter's second birthday party on the first floor at the Clockhouse. ?500 MINIMUM SPEND to rent from 2pm to 4pm in late September.


Our flat isn't big enough to host a party and i would love to have (approx) 10 of her toddler mates to celebrate with her.


Can someone please put me out my misery of the ?500 trauma and help offer alternative venues/ideas to help me pick a venue?


I really really would appreciate it :O)

For Gods sake, why can't people ask a simple question without the sarcastic retorts?


Ladysay, a friend of mine had a party for toddlers just up in Brockley and she definitely wasn't charged a ?500 minimum spend.


I'll let you know when I see her tonight.


Cheers

It's upstairs in the pub that she's asking about.


What's wrong with that?


They go in the entrance, up the wooden stairs to the private function room upstairs.


Don't worry, they won't see the fights, strippers, cock fighting, and bare knuckle bouts that go on in the pubs around East Dulwich.

Most of the gastropubs around here are full of kids. Gastropubs are very family friendly (some actually have play areas) so yes NunheadRising you are clearly not a parent around here and your criticism is totally uninformed and out of place.

The park in late September?!


Yes, expecting 2 year olds to sit amongst the autumn leaves on wet grass and have a picnic wearing wellie boots/rain macs/hats & scarves sounds like a great idea.

Nunheadrising... Not so much


Then again they have to kill time until the next bin-rifling thread



The plough used to do very reasonable parties. They partitioned off an area of the pub


Upstairs at the med place next to roullier white is good too

I'd prefer if I had a child that they were used to pubs, and when they got to teenage years etc., that drinking/pubs wouldn't appear so exciting to them!


That's how I was raised anyway, anyone I knew who didn't go to pub regularly with their parents (and some not at all), were dying to go out to pubs/clubs long before me! Maybe it's somewhat an Irish thing!


Good luck finding a good place to have it :) And have a great time :)

    • EVs don't have to be huge. I used to work for Th!nk in Norway. We put the battery under the seat & had a 2 + 2. It was also 98% recyclable & the first car that could communicate to with a phone. Sadly went into receivership in 2012. Note that we were developing a battery with Tesla in the early days but they pulled out as they didn't have the funding. Musk wasn't as much of an upstart in those days but we still thought he was a *fill this space with your own version* Crumple zones also don't have to be that big either, there are several small cars that meet the Euro N Cap rating. There is more danger in larger cars for pedestrian impact as they can damage vital organs or head injuries due to the height of the impact.
    • Hi all, We have some last-minute availability coming up in the next 1–2 months, as one of our larger projects has experienced unexpected delays. We came across this recommendation thread, which dates back to around 2011/12 and doesn’t seem to be easily searchable on the forum anymore, so we thought we’d add to it to keep it active and hopefully stop it from disappearing again.   Thanks very much, Atanas Big Small Building Solutions 07809 776638 https://www.bigsmallbuildingsolutions.co.uk/
