Plaisterers’ Hall offers a grand, traditional setting for events in the City of London, with a collection of spaces that can accommodate everything from intimate dinners and board meetings to conferences, exhibitions and large-scale celebrations. Within walking distance of St Paul’s, Bank and Moorgate stations, it is also well placed for guests travelling from across the capital.
The Great Hall is the standout space, with ornate moulded ceilings, decorative wall detailing, imposing crystal chandeliers and a richly carpeted floor. A balcony overlooks the room and can be used for live entertainment, while the central floor can be configured for dining, dancing, presentations or receptions. It can host up to 500 standing or 330 for a banquet, with layouts adapted to suit everything from awards ceremonies and corporate dinners to Christmas parties and weddings.
The Livery Hall provides a more intimate alternative, with capacity for 70 seated for a banquet or 220 standing. For smaller gatherings, the Humber Room can host up to 16 guests for a meeting or 20 theatre-style, while the Mott Room accommodates up to 20 guests for either a meeting or standing reception.
Food is handled by the venue’s exclusive award-winning caterers, with seasonal menus available throughout the day. Breakfast might include pastries, coconut yoghurt with summer berries and granola or roasted portobello mushroom baps, while lunch can be kept light with salads, wraps and sandwiches.
Evening events can move into canapes, bowl food, food stations or formal multi-course dining. Menus might include starters such as cured Chalkstream trout or free-range chicken terrine, mains like confit duck, roasted venison fillet or miso aubergine with confit peppers, followed by delights including lemon meringue pie or molten chocolate cake.
Alternative formats include arancini, pizza and dessert stations, as well as traditional afternoon tea. Drinks packages can include cocktails, alcohol-free cocktails, wine, beer, cider and soft drinks.
