Minimum Bar spend

There is no hire fee for hosting events here, but instead we set a minimum amount we require to be spent on drinks. We provide a fully stocked bar, cocktail trained bar staff as well as door staff. The minimum bar spends vary throughout the week, as follows:

Sunday - Thursday - £1,000
Friday Night - £1,250
Saturday Night - £1,500

These figures are based on evening events running from 7/8pm util 1am. Daytime events and dry-hire enquiries are negotiable.

Sound Equipment

We have a PA and facility to play music from laptops/tablets etc. We also have Technics vinyl decks (please bring your own needles), Pioneer mixer and Newmark CDJs with USB inputs (model NDX900). Any damage to the equipment would be taken out of your deposit. We can recommend DJs, or bring your own, or just play a playlist! Up to you.

catering

We are happy for you to bring in outside caterers. We have a small food prep area rather than a kitchen. Our neighbours, Ikram, can supply delicious Turkish mezze sharing platters, or many parties just like to dial in pizza from Yard Sale or Well Street Pizza!

Normally we close at 1am. If you’d like us to apply for a later license until 2am, we add a further £300 to the minimum spend.

The deposit is £200. This is a holding deposit to secure the date for your event, and also acts as protection again damage to our music equipment, acts of vandalism by any of your guests, and can cover (or go towards) any loss due to a deficit in the minimum bar spend. 

Once the deposit is received, the event date is confirmed. If you cancel the event within two calendar months of the event, we have the right to retain the deposit in full. 

We have the right to retain the deposit if the event is cancelled, unless the reason for cancelling is due to Government guidance in relation to Covid. If the Government prevent the event from taking place, the customer has the right to request a full refund or reschedule the date. 

If the minimum spend is not reached the customer must pay the outstanding amount in full. This can be taken from the deposit. If the amount outstanding is greater than the sum of the deposit then the remaining deficit must be paid before leaving the venue.

General wear and tear is expected during events, including accidental spillages and glass breakages etc, but if there are any deliberate acts of vandalism or breakage of the musical equipment then we will take payment from the deposit (e.g. damage caused by spillages on the decks or mixer must be taken from the deposit)...Receipts for replacement items or work can be provided upon request. 

The deposit will be refunded on the next working day (Mon-Fri) following the event, minus any forfeits as mentioned above, if applicable.
