Located in the heart of the city of London, Browns Old Jewry is housed in the former Commonwealth Bank of Australia, offering a grand yet contemporary backdrop for your upcoming event. Whether you’re planning an intimate birthday party or bridal shower, or are looking to take over the entire space with a corporate or summer party, there’s plenty of options to choose from.
When it comes to booking an event or party at Browns Old Jewry, you’ll find a selection of versatile spaces, complete with vaulted ceilings, and sprawling windows that ensure each room is flooded with natural lighting. The Mezzanine is the perfect spot for mid-sized events, with space for 140 for a sit down dinner, or 160 guests for a drinks reception. Elsewhere, the private dining room can seat just 14, allowing an intimate backdrop for you and your nearest and dearest. For larger celebrations, be sure to consider exclusive hire of the venue, with space for up to 390 guests standing, or 290 if you’re planning a lavish banquet.
Menus vary depending on the type of your event. For a standing reception, you might opt for a selection of canapes, with options including the likes of BBQ prawn skewers with miso and lime, or crisp pork belly bites with apple sauce. For something a bit more substantial, why not choose buffet-style dining for you and your guests, with a variety of meat, fish and vegetarian options including calamari with aioli, cheeseburger sliders or ghosts cheese and pear crostini.
For a more classic celebration, you’ll find set menus, offering two- or three-course dinners with the option of an added Champagne reception. Start with the likes of pan-fried scallops with roast butternut and pancetta, followed by roast cod and wild garlic salsa verde, or lobster linguine with lemon gremolata. Finish with indulgent desserts such as rich chocolate fondant, or sticky toffee pudding with Bourbon vanilla ice cream.
