Haswell Green's hosts company gatherings, after-work parties and milestone celebrations for groups from 30 to 600 guests. It is a two-level bar, restaurant and live music venue at 240 W 52nd St in the Theater District of Manhattan, New York, with five private spaces and a full buyout option.
Seminars and company events
The in-house events team plans after-work company gatherings, happy hours, milestone parties and corporate celebrations for any size of group. Organizers can book a single area for a small team or take over the whole building for a company-wide evening.
The official site presents the spaces as places to celebrate and socialize. It does not describe daytime meeting equipment such as screens, microphones or a presentation set-up. If you plan a working session, a product launch with speeches or a morning start, ask the events team what can be arranged before you choose a room.
The venue also runs its own live programming. Live band karaoke takes place on Mondays at 9:30 pm, a band plays on Thursdays at 10 pm, and dueling pianos perform on Friday and Saturday nights at 10 pm. Private events are scheduled around that calendar, so confirm your date early.
Rooms and capacities
The venue lists five private options, each with a stated capacity.
The 1st Floor is at street level and holds up to 300 guests. The West Wing, which is the main bar, holds up to 30 guests and suits a small team. The Stage Area, also at street level, holds up to 120 guests. Winnie's occupies the second floor and holds up to 300 guests. A full venue buyout combines the first and second floors for up to 600 guests.
The event page also offers a floor plan and a video tour. Use them to compare the rooms before you send a request, and check how your guest count translates into seating, standing or a mix of both.
Catering
Food and drink are arranged through a set of event packages. The official site lists these formats:
- Platter menu and enhanced platter menu
- Chef selections
- Lunch and dinner buffet
- Lunch and dinner family style
- Family style brunch
- Three-course prix-fixe menu
- Unmanned stations
- Dessert platters
- Open bar packages
Platters are sold in 24-piece portions and are not replenished during the event, so plan the number of platters against your guest count. The platter menu covers warm snacks such as arancini, spring rolls, chicken satay skewers and mini crab cakes, plus sliders, chilled items and flatbreads. Dishes are marked as gluten free, vegetarian or vegan where they apply, and gluten-free flatbread dough is available.
Getting there
Haswell Green's is at 240 W 52nd St, New York, NY 10019, in the Theater District. Hotels, theaters and several subway lines are within walking distance in Midtown, which makes the venue practical for teams that arrive from different parts of the city or from out of town.
Event requests go through the form on the official events page, which uses Tripleseat, a private event booking system. Send your date, guest count and the format you have in mind, and the events team will propose a space and a package.
