We recently had a private function at this venue and couldn’t be happier with the experience. Ella and her team were absolutely amazing — so patient, professional, and incredibly flexible throughout the entire planning process and on the day itself. Nothing was ever too much trouble! The food was delicious and beautifully presented. Highly recommend this venue for any event — a fantastic team and a flawless experience from start to finish. Thank you again, Ella and team!
