The spacious surroundings and impressive architecture make the ideal setting to host champagne drinks receptions, formal seated dinners, or awards evenings. The high glass roof, arched balconies, grand staircase, and marble floor make a magnificent backdrop for any event.
Our team of experienced and creative chefs are skilled at creating bespoke menus to suit your needs, whether you’re planning a banquet or are after some delicious canapes. We use the finest ingredients, locally sourced where possible, and ensure our food is ethical, sustainable, and seasonal.
