Helping you remember your loved one
We offer a caring and empathetic environment for commemorative gatherings of loved ones, families and friends.
Our friendly staff will look after you from the time of booking, right through to the day of the service. We are ready to welcome you and your guests for that special time together for you to meet, reminisce and celebrate the life of your loved one.
Whether you just require tea, coffee and cake, or a much more lavish reception, we have a wide range of rooms to suit your needs. All are accessible, and most have air conditioning available.
Nineteen33 is our beautiful first floor function suite that can cater for up to 220 guests, yet retains a cosy and warm feel. It has its own bar, but can also be use in conjunction with ‘Kabia’s’, our adjacent Lounge Bar, which boast comfy chairs and sofas for a very relaxing visit. Nineteen33 can also be divided to cater for smaller parties of up to 60 guests, and is fully air conditioned, and is serviced by a lift.
Kabia’s is our first floor lounge bar, which has the feel of a comfortable gentleman’s club, which is furnished with beautiful comfy chairs and sofas for a very relaxed get-together. Thirty people would be comfortable in this space, for a very informal reception. Kabia’s is fully air conditioned, and is serviced by a lift.
Used by the Directors on match days, this important room at the club is perfect for an intimate get together for around 30 guests. The Boardroom has its own bar/kitchenette, and our staff will be on hand to ensure everything runs smoothly on your important day. The Boardroom is fully air conditioned, and is serviced by a lift.
We have four exclusive Hospitality Boxes, which are perfect for catering for up to 10 guests for that very special and personal gathering. The Hospitality Boxes are fully air conditioned, and are serviced by a lift.
Ellenders is our bistro style restaurant on the ground floor, which offers a very different space to our other suites. It has a modern contemporary industrial feel, but is very warm and welcoming. The room subtly celebrates the history of the football club, and is a special place to gather. This space would be suitable for around 100 guests. Ellenders is fully air conditioned.
