The splendour of Merchants’ Hall can only be appreciated through a personal visit and we welcome the opportunity to discuss your event requirements with you.
Testimonials
Dear Simon and team
Please pass on our thanks from Chambers. From the reception staff and event manager through to the chefs and kitchen personnel what a wonderful night we had last week.
Back at the Merchants Hall after a couple of years, everyone commented on how lovely the venue is, the décor and furnishings.
The food from the canapes through to the cheese course, together with the wine pairings meant that everything tasted delicious. Finally, the post dinner entertainment meant that this year, there was nothing left to chance.
Thank you all for a fantastic event.
“The team at Merchants’ Hall are extremely professional and very helpful at every stage, from initial inquiry to the day itself. High quality catering and welcoming, accommodating staff make every meeting smooth and enjoyable.”
“Thanks to your hard work and attention to detail, the evening was a tremendous success, delivered seamlessly. The feedback from our guests has been so overwhelmingly positive that we
would like to book our flagship annual event with you again next year.”
