With quite literally a space for all occasions, Pantechnicon spans six floors and is home to eight different rooms that range from intimate private dining nooks through to exclusive hire options perfect for larger-scale private dining.
The team here prides itself on being ultra-friendly, so from the get go you can expect to be assigned an event manager who will work with you to ensure your perfect party is realised. While they will of course primarily be on hand to refine down elements like menus and timings, they are also experts in their area and can help make suggestions for external elements like entertainment or décor.
Across the six floors there are various drinking and dining options, with the Nordic and Japanese restaurants taking centre stage. Eldr upstairs deals in Nordic food made from the best British ingredients, while Sachi downstairs is a striking space that serves up modern Japanese food in calm surrounds.
One of our favourite private dining spaces at Pantechnicon is the roof terrace – a spot with sweeping views and retractable doors as well as covered and heated options. Lending itself to gatherings at any time of the year, this is sure to impress with its simple Scandi décor and lush green planting. Here you’ll be able to feast from Eldr’s menu of sharing plates that includes fish dishes like halibut with elderflower, Oscietra and cucumber or cod with a smoked cream and sea herbs. Meaty mains run from the likes of a beer tartare with blackberries and rye through to a pork and chicken terrine with greengage. House-made spritzes keep things interesting on the drinks front too, with a crownberry and red currant or a seaweed and snaps providing a welcome change from all the usual tipples.
Elsewhere the screened private dining spaces in Sachi create cosy, exclusive areas to enjoy the restaurant’s Japanese dishes, including its signature sushi serves.
