Venue Hire

Looking for a venue for your birthday, hen do, work event, or Christmas party? We do venue hire for groups of up to 140. Semi-private areas for up to 60, or exclusive hire of the full venue with sound, screens, and food and drinks packages sorted. No fuss — just tell us what you need.

The space

Semi-private rear area

Up to 40 seated or 60 standing. Your own section of the venue with dedicated bar access. Great for birthdays, work drinks, and smaller celebrations.

Exclusive hire

Up to 80 seated or 140 standing. The full venue is yours — sound system, screens, bar, kitchen. Ideal for Christmas parties, corporate events, and big celebrations.

Large party reservation

Groups of 8 or more. Not full venue hire, but a reserved area with food and drinks pre-ordered. Call us on 0141 243 2162 to arrange.

Food & drink

Full bar access — Drygate on tap, wines, spirits. Choose from our regular food menu or we can put together a package depending on numbers and budget. Smashed burgers, loaded fries, sharing plates — whatever works for your group. Check the drinks menu too.

Occasions

Birthday

Your mates, your music, your menu. We'll sort the space, the food, and the drinks. You just turn up and enjoy it.

Hen do

Cocktails optional, good time guaranteed. Semi-private or full venue — depends how big the squad is.

Stag do

Drygate on tap, food sorted, screens if there's a match on. We've hosted a few — we know the drill.

Corporate

Team drinks, client entertaining, end-of-quarter celebrations. A Merchant City venue that doesn't feel like a conference room.

Christmas party

Skip the hotel ballroom. Smashed burgers, Drygate, and a venue that actually has atmosphere. Book early — December fills up fast.

Wedding

Not a wedding venue in the traditional sense, but if you want a post-ceremony party or casual reception with great food and drink, talk to us.
