Beer Garden

The Empress Beer Garden is perfect for no fuss casual events for groups of 20 - 80. It is heated and has a retractable roof, making it suitable for all seasons.

We can rope off a section for you and your guests to enjoy a designated area amongst the pub atmosphere. For section bookings there is no minimum spend, no hire fee, and no deposit required. There’s also no obligation to cater your event or set up a bar tab, though both can be arranged with our kitchen and bar team.

The Beer Garden is also perfect for large parties looking to host a sit down dinner or lunch.

For groups larger than 80, or more exclusive events, the Beer Garden can be booked privately with a minimum spend.

Let’s book it in.
