Cool, Funky Venue for a 30th Birthday Party

[Anabel]

Hi all - I hope you're all having a good PM...?

It's my boss's 30th birthday on the 16th July and she has asked me to source some ideas for a cool and funky venue for between 40/50 guests to party, on that day, which is a Saturday.

She's looking to hire out a room with its own bar.  Not too expensive, but could agree to a guaranteed spend behind the bar of �1,000-�1,500, with room hire free.

She's looking to hold the party in the West London/Central London area.  I have already tried, Soho House, B'Lo, Beauford House, Tryst and Adam Street - unfortunately, they're not available on the 16th.

It's important to me that I go back with some interesting ideas, as this is a new job I'm in and I really want to impress by boss.

Thank you so much in advance for any ideas you could provide me with. xx

Anabel,

Try this link to "The Roof Garden" which sits above Kensington High Street.

Good Luck and Happy Partying!

The Roof Garden is lovely.  It's got it's own lvely room with gardens around, a stream running through it, trees, all on a rooftop!  That's the old Derry & Toms building and one can access it (or used to) by the entrance of the Daily MaIl/Evening Standard entrance to the building,  Can't imagine it not being expensive to hire, though and I don't think there's anything other than the big room - unlikely to close that to other diners.

Can't for the life of me remember the name of the place where all the journalists and writers go in Soho. I think parts of that place can be hired - but you might have to be a member first.  A place such as that might be able to recommend another place round there that as yet hasn't been 'discovered'

P.S.  A wider AB Topic would be 'People and Places'.  There's a different lot pof posters in some Topics and you would have a wider net in that one.  If you can't cut and paste the question,  do a smaller post and refer them to this Topic.
