PRIVATE HIRE & EVENTS
Vivat Bacchus London Bridge can offer private hire in our downstairs room. The room has capacity for up to 80 people standing or 65 for a sit-down meal. Private wine (and cheese) tastings are available for 12-60 people.
The room is adjacent to our wine cellar and has its own cheese room. A visit to the cheese room can be incorporated into your event, allowing your guests to pick their own cheeseboard from our ample selection. (Due to the size of the cheese room, only four customers can visit at any one time. Note that you need to notify us at the time of your booking should you wish to include a visit to the cheese room.)
SEMI-PRIVATE AREAS FOR SMALLER GROUPS For smaller group bookings, whether a sit-down meal or drinks with nibbles, we can screen off an area suitable for your party. Where possible, we will offer you a choice of spaces, either upstairs or downstairs, or during the warmer months, outside.
Please contact us with your requirements, dates, and number of people, and we will check availability and arrange your party! For exclusive hire of the entire restaurant and bar, please contact us for options and prices.
We do not charge a room hire fee, however a minimum spend may apply to private parties and group bookings.
