Venue Testimonials
We could have not picked a better location for our wedding. Not only because of the stunning location on the river Thames and the breathtaking interiors but because of the professionalism and kindness of all the staff members.
Martha S
Hired the beautiful ante room and Admiral's Bar to host a private business dinner last night. The view at night across Canary Wharf was amazing & the room, all lit by candlelight & steeped in naval history was stunning. Food was very good (fish n chips wowed everyone & the wood pigeon was fab).
Mandal U
We thought of a pub wedding on a budget, we got a classy, elegant wedding venue by the river with gorgeous views of the wharf, great staff, amazing wedding suite and excellent service. Everyone was wowed by the food, the location, service, venue. If you want a London wedding for a small group on a budget but still want an elegant wedding, this is the place for you.
