London's best private rooms for corporate dining

Looking to seal the deal or impress your clients? These private dining rooms across the capital seamlessly blend business with pleasure, allowing for high-quality dining and impressive backdrops across some of the city's finest restaurants.

Updated on 27 January 2025

When it comes to finding a venue for private dining, London has it all, with thousands of spots that cater for a variety of occasions. Naturally, corporate dining is a staple in the capital's dining scene, where business meetings merge with set menus and deals take place over cocktails and canapes. If you’re on the hunt for an impressive setting with delicious cuisine, then you’ve come to the right place.

When you're looking for a venue to host your corporate get-together there are several things to be considered. Different venues offer varied levels of private dining, so it's important to know exactly what you want from your location. You might be after a completely secluded space, something that will guarantee a quiet atmosphere for a private meeting, or perhaps partial exclusivity is more your style allowing for that vibrant restaurant buzz that is sure to create a more relaxed and casual environment. 

The key ingredient to corporate dining, in our humble opinion, is finding somewhere that allows for a hybrid approach. It's that tricky in between - not quite a meeting but more than just an evening out. Boasting high-tech AV facilities such as large screens, projectors and conferencing software, these spots allow you to host a more formal business lunch or a client dinner whilst still allowing for presentations and conference calls. It's the perfect blend of business with pleasure.

Not sure where to start? That's where we come in. We’ve rounded up a selection of our top spots, from sleek contemporary spaces to more elegant and historic settings. Below are London's best private rooms for business dinners, each with diverse cuisines and atmospheres depending on your corporate needs.
