Private Dining Rooms for Different Occasions

Private dining rooms can work for a wide range of private and corporate events.

Smaller rooms may suit a business lunch, dinner with clients, birthday celebration or family occasion, while larger private rooms and event spaces can accommodate weddings, company dinners, drinks receptions and other group events.

When comparing venues, consider whether you need a seated meal only or additional space for arrival drinks, presentations, speeches or entertainment.

For corporate events, it is also worth checking AV facilities, Wi-Fi, accessibility and transport connections where these are important to your plans.

Choosing a Private Dining Room Outside London

Start with your location, date and approximate guest numbers.

Capacity is particularly important. A private room designed for ten guests will provide a very different event from a restaurant space accommodating 50 or 100 people.

You should also consider:

• seated and standing capacity
• room hire or minimum spend
• menu options and price per person
• drinks packages
• private or exclusive use
• reception space
• AV facilities
• accessibility
• parking and public transport
• accommodation where required
• finishing times

For weddings and larger celebrations, ask whether the venue has additional spaces for drinks before or after the meal.

How Much Does a Private Dining Room Cost?

The cost of private dining outside London varies according to the venue, location, guest numbers, menu, day of the week and type of event.

Some venues charge a room-hire fee, while others operate on a minimum food-and-drink spend or charge a set menu price per person.

When comparing quotations, check what is included and whether service charge, drinks, AV equipment, entertainment or other requirements are additional.

Providing venues with your approximate budget when you first enquire can help establish quickly whether they are suitable.
