Every occasion deserves a great setting

We’re here to celebrate all occasions, from private celebrations like wedding day-twos, milestone birthdays, and anniversaries worth marking, to corporate events like team meet-ups, company-wide celebrations, and MICE groups, and everything in between. Our dedicated team has great experience in event management and will help bring your vision to life, whether you’re planning something small and intimate or a much larger celebration.

We offer distinct spaces, each with its own character: the intimate Cocktail Snug, the characterful Cobble Room, the Terrace, which can be extended with the adjoining Glasshouse bar, our fairy-lit Courtyard, complete with its own private bar, and The Stables backyard, also complete with its own private bar. Whatever the size or style of your event, we’ll help you find the space that fits.

We can privatise a single space or combine two or more, depending on what your event needs, so the setting is shaped around your guests rather than fixed in advance.

Yes, a hire fee applies, and this varies depending on the date, the spaces required, and your guest numbers. It also includes a few personal touches to make the space your own, like a welcome sign and table signage, Sweetshop sweets, a Guinness ripple on your pints, or a personalised edible topper on your cocktails. Get in touch with our team and we’ll be able to give you an accurate quote for your function.

Yes, a deposit of 50% of the hire fee is required to secure your date and space. Once this is paid, your booking is confirmed. If you need to cancel, your deposit is refunded provided we’re notified at least 4 weeks before your function date.

Capacity depends on the space, or combination of spaces, we’ll chat through with you based on your function and guest numbers. As a guide, the Cocktail Snug holds 12 to 18 guests, the Cobble Room up to 40, and the Terrace including the Glasshouse 20 to 60 guests. The Courtyard and The Stables backyard both hold considerably more, and for our largest functions, combining spaces, we can accommodate approximately 250 guests. These are approximate numbers based on a casual setting rather than a formal, seated event. Every function has different needs, so we’ll always discuss the details with you to recommend the best option.

Yes. For private celebrations, we share a sample of our Functions Menu in the menus section – a selection of homemade options served canapé style on sharing platters, with pricing from €27.50pp for six items. Perfect to be passed around, shared, and enjoyed with friends and family. For private celebrations of more than 80 guests, we also offer a BBQ option at €27.50pp (minimum of 80 guests), a great choice for larger gatherings.

For corporate functions, our menus are bespoke, emphasising quality Irish and seasonal produce, and tailored to your event and guest numbers.

Across all functions, drinks can be included as part of your package too, from mini cocktails and drink ripples on Guinness pints, to edible drink toppers on cocktails, prosecco or wine on arrival, or a tab at the bar, all can be organised to suit your celebration.

For private functions, we ask that food is ordered for at least 80% of your guest numbers. This helps us schedule the kitchen and resources for your event, and makes sure it’s viable for our kitchen to prepare this menu specifically for your group. Drinks packages are entirely at your discretion, there’s no minimum spend required.

Yes, we do cater for most dietary requirements and allergies, but please make sure to let our team know when you’re discussing the menu for your function. Our kitchen team are all allergen aware and we take great care in the kitchen, but as with any busy kitchen, we can’t 100% guarantee against traces of nuts or other allergens.

The earlier, the better. Weekend dates, and dates around busy times like Christmas and bank holidays, are the most in demand, and these can be booked out 6 to 12 months ahead (sometimes even 24 months in advance!). Though we accommodate shorter timelines when possible. We’d always recommend getting in touch as early as possible to help secure the date you have in mind.

We don’t work from a fixed set of packages, every event is built around what you actually need. Once we know your date, guest numbers, and the type of occasion, whether a private celebration or a corporate function, we’ll put together the right combination of space (used alone or combined), food and drink menus, and entertainment for you. We also have a range of add-ons to choose from depending on the occasion, each of which can be customised to suit your needs and budget. Get in touch with our team and we’ll talk you through the options.

Yes. Throughout the summer months, we host live music sessions seven days a week from about 6pm in our Café Bar and Courtyard, continuing on the weekends for the rest of the year. For your event, you’re welcome to book musicians for earlier in the evening. But please do note the stage can only be privatised if the Courtyard has also been reserved for your function. We keep a list of local traditional and contemporary musicians we’re happy to recommend for your function, though musicians are booked and paid directly by you for this earlier gig.
