Private venue hire in London - 21/5/2012 11:23:44 AM

I'm looking for a private hire venue for a birthday party in London, preferably South of the river, for around 50-100 people.

Have been having a look online, but there's a huge amount of information out there, and not all of it particularly relevant to what I'm looking for.

I want a private room with it's own bar and own DJ facilities for a weekend night, I have no idea if this is actually even going to be possible? I'd rather not spend a fortune on venue hire and have it covered (at least in part) by bar spend, but wouldn't be averse to paying for a decent place if it was right.

Any ideas/past experience of venues that you can pass on?

i was gonna hire a place near Shorditch for my birthday once. I can’t remember what it was called, but they wanted £2000 minimum bar spend or i’d have to pay the rest so i didn’t bother. Would of been good, but i didn’t want to risk having to fork out a load of money in case we didn’t spend it at the bar

Went to a birthday party here recently: http://www.thecarpentersarmsw1.co.uk/ He had the top floor which holds about 100 I reckon. The venue allowed decks etc. late license and the smoking area is attached to the pub so good interaction between everyone.

I've helped sort out the soundsystem / decks etc. for this new Bar / Club in Brixton..

They've just started, so you should be able to hire a weekend date there, fits all of your criteria..

Thanks all, have contacted Fluid Bar and Club-43.

Might give 93 Feet East a miss if they're going to get pissy if any drum & bass goes on as it inevitably will later on.

Have scaled back my requirements on this because it was proving to be too much hassle/risk to organise, so now looking for something like a private hire roof terrece or something similar for about 50 people max.

Doesn't need to have it's own DJ/music facilities either now.

Any further recommendations welcome please.

The 93 Feet East venue was good, I played on the 3rd floor which I assume is ideally for private hire. It's not very big, probably squeeze in 60 people but it does have a private bar and outside terrace.

Parking is 2 mins away, the bouncers were amusing - walked up to the entrance and as I was being let in one one of the bouncers was inspecting a bag of pills. What his intentions were I have no idea! Friendly enough though.

Only downside is that you can't open the windows and it has no air con so as you can imagine, I was roasting behind the decks.

The club supplied Techincs and a nice little scratch mixer (can't remember the make of it, wasn't a shit one)

Oh... I even had a monitor!
