A private bar for an anniversary suits an evening for two, where the conversation matters and you would like something out of the ordinary alongside it.
Confirm what makes the room fully private, the atmosphere, anything you want arranged, and the total, before you book.
Decide how you want to spend it
A quiet toast, or golf and karaoke as well: settle it from what you both enjoy.
If you are planning a surprise, keep it to something that will not put the other person on the spot, and speak to the venue in advance.
Check the room and the atmosphere
A fully private room with a door makes it far easier to talk without an audience. Check the lighting and the volume too.
Beyond the photographs, ask how you come and go and how to call staff.
Discuss a cake or a present
Check whether you can bring a cake, flowers or a present, and how it will be kept and brought out.
Bringing food in can carry conditions. Do not simply arrive with it; raise it when you book.
- A fully private room
- The lighting and the volume
- What you can bring
- The total for the evening
Look at the price and the cancellation terms
Confirm the total: the room charge, the drinks, any equipment charge and the service charge.
Private rooms are few, so check the deadlines for cancelling or changing the date before you book.
