Planning a party?

Reserve our characterful side room for adult celebrations of 30 guests or more, with easy access to our covered, heated garden.

No hire fee • No minimum spend • £100 refundable deposit

Perfect for milestone birthdays, engagement drinks, wedding afterparties, leaving parties and reunions.

Your space for the evening.

Our side room comfortably seats more than 30 guests, or plenty more with standing room, and offers easy access to the garden. Your group will have it as a reserved base while still enjoying the music and atmosphere of the pub.

The adjoining garden includes covered, heated seating and a separate uncovered smoking area.

Good to know: The side room is a reserved area within the pub rather than a completely private function room. Under-18s are welcome until 8pm, but we don’t host children’s parties or events involving large groups of children.

Add our party buffet.

Our light party buffet is available for £10 per person and includes: croquettes of the day, pigs in blankets, padrón peppers, filled choux pastry gougères, pork and vegan sausage rolls, all served with fries.

You’re also welcome to bring a celebration cake (all other food and drink must be purchased from the pub).

Tell us what you’re planning.

Parties can be booked throughout the week, subject to availability.

Use our booking form to send us your preferred date and party details. Select your preferred date and time, then include the type of celebration, approximate number of guests and whether you’re interested in the buffet in the special requests box.

Submitting the form is an enquiry only. Your party is not confirmed until we have replied and received the £100 deposit.
