About The Anthologist

The Anthologist offers flexible venue hire in the City of London, with a wide range of spaces suited to everything from office parties and corporate events to birthday celebrations, baby showers and larger social gatherings.

Set across multiple levels, the venue provides a mix of private and semi-private areas that can be adapted depending on the size and style of your event. Smaller spaces such as the Chef’s Table or Snug are well-suited to more intimate occasions, while larger areas, including the Panel Room, Deli and the Private Dining Room, allow for bigger group bookings. 

You can also book their mixo space for a mixology class of up to 8 people at a time. This can be booked alongside the Deli, which can accommodate up to 50 guests. For larger events, half venue hire is available for up to 100 people seated or 200 standing or you can hire the venue exclusively for 220 seated or up to 650 standing. 

Interiors vary throughout the space, with a blend of exposed brick, wood panelling, greenery and softer furnishings creating a layered, contemporary feel. Each area has its own character, making it easy to tailor the setting to suit anything from relaxed celebrations to more formal events.

Food and drink packages can be tailored to suit the occasion, with seasonal menus offering everything from canapes and grazing boards to buffet-style dining and set menus. Dishes may include arancini, burrata and sea bass, alongside more substantial options such as chicken Milanese or cheeseburgers, with desserts like sticky toffee pudding or chocolate brownie. Brunch packages are also available, alongside sharing cocktails, curated wine lists and a wide selection of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. A dedicated on-site events team is available to help plan and personalise each booking.
