functions/parties

We have two function rooms available for hire.

The queen's room and the cellar bar are both well established as party venues
and are the perfect setting for any occasion - Birthdays, anniversaries,
christenings or reunions - and are open for you to book privately until 12.30am any evening.

We can provide a formal menu or a buffet to best suit your party needs.
We are happy to accommodate the type of day or evening event you're after,
whether that's a relaxed and elegant dinner dance or a themed disco.
To make life extra easy for you, we will take care of dj bookings and all musical
entertainment. Just let us know what you would like.

Both rooms are fully licensed and the bars stay open until midnight.

The queen’s room

The queen’s room is available for formal
dining or for informal buffets and discos.

We will cater for up to 120 people and
menus are available on request.

The cellar bar

The cellar bar was once a nightclub and still has a touch of the dancing feel so it is ideal for that special occasion.

Choose from a selection of buffet menus.

We will work with you to create the setting you want, whether you wish to decorate the
room with balloons or move the furniture!
