Based just a stone's throw away from Paddington station, Smith's Bar & Grill is a buzzy restaurant and bar right on the edge of the canal. However, it also benefits from a number of fantastic spaces which can be used for private dinners. With such a great location, and a choice of rooms which can be hired, Smith's Bar & Grill is well worth considering when you're next looking to host a function or large private dinner.
The main restaurant is a bright and contemporary space ideal for private or semi-private hire, accommodating up to 100 seated guests. Flexible layouts and set menu options are available in this space, with the option to hire the bar alongside the restaurant if your event requires a little extra breathing room.
For more relaxed group gatherings, the bar is able to hold up to 40 seated guests or 100 standing. Guests can enjoy Smith's Bar & Grill’s extensive drinks list, as well as tasty bar food and pre-ordered canapés.
You can also choose to hire the dedicated private dining room – the Regent Room – an intimate space suitable for up to 60 seated or 80 standing guests. This exclusive space is a great choice for meetings, private dinners or standing receptions.
If you’d like to hire Smith’s Bar & Grill for a lavish occasion, the venue is available for exclusive hire – including the restaurant, bar, terrace and Regent Room - for up to 200 seated or 400 standing guests. This option includes full access to drinks and a choice of canapés, set menus or bespoke menus.
On the hunt for a restaurant with outdoor space? The canal-side terrace is ideal for al fresco dining or seated drinks receptions. The terrace can be hired on a semi-private basis, or is included in exclusive venue hire for up to 100 seated guests.
