Bombay Palace can host private dinners, meetings and parties for between 25 and 95 guests in three separate rooms, or for the whole restaurant in exclusive use. The restaurant is at 50 Connaught Street in Tyburnia, London W2. Its events page lists a private suite, a lounge bar with a patio and a larger room for up to 75 seated guests.
Seminars and company events
The Palace Suite is the room for business use. The site describes it as suited to private parties, conferences and important meetings. It has a 60-inch smart TV built into the wall for presentations, a walnut veneer partition for privacy, floor-to-ceiling windows with blinds if daylight is a problem, and free WiFi. It holds 25 to 30 seated or 40 standing. For a corporate dinner or a larger gathering, the Bombay Room is described as fully equipped for parties and business meetings, with smart TVs and a satellite connection to show films, photographs and presentations.
Weddings and receptions
The events page speaks of birthdays, anniversaries, private parties and corporate dinners. It does not mention weddings, so couples should ask the events team whether a reception is possible before planning around the venue. For celebrations of a similar kind, the Bombay Room can be reserved for exclusive use by one party, and the lounge bar works for drinks receptions.
Rooms and capacities
The Palace Suite takes 25 to 30 seated or 40 standing. The Lounge Bar and Patio takes 30 to 40 for casual dining when the two are used together. The lounge has its own cocktail bar with a bartender, a 55-inch smart TV and free WiFi, and it is separated from the restaurant by a glass partition. The patio has electric heaters and a retractable canopy, so it can be used in most weather. The Bombay Room is the largest space: 75 seated or 95 standing, with a music system that can play different music in different zones of the restaurant.
Catering
The restaurant serves Indian cuisine. The lounge and patio have a menu of contemporary Indian small plates, and the bar offers ten wines by the glass at all times along with a collection of single malt whisky. The events page also advertises private dining and catering. Menus for each group are agreed with the events team, and a deposit confirms a booking: the site asks you to confirm the amount with the team before paying.
