The Menier Lounge is an event space on the first floor of a Grade II listed warehouse in London Bridge. It holds up to 60 guests indoors, and up to 100 when the private walled garden is hired as well. It is part of Menier Venues, a small group of spaces a few minutes' walk from London Bridge station, and it is used for company away days, board meetings, press events, product launches, workshops and dinners.
Seminars and company events
The Lounge is described by its operator as a flexible, informal room for networking, breakout sessions and interviews. The list of uses on its page includes company away days, board meetings and AGMs, press events, product launches, networking events, talks and lectures, workshops and corporate parties. A 65-inch screen is available to hire for presentations, and other AV equipment can be arranged on request. Wi-Fi is provided, and the operator states that it supports live streaming and hybrid meetings.
Events can run until 11 pm, with access times included in the hire and extended hours possible by arrangement. DJs and background music are allowed with prior approval, within the building's noise limits. The operator also notes that the Lounge holds no alcohol licence, so cash bars and ticketed events are not allowed. Alcohol can be served at private events.
Weddings and receptions
Weddings and wine tastings appear among the events the Lounge hosts, along with dinner parties and corporate parties. The room's exposed brickwork, industrial beams and natural light are the setting. With the walled garden added, the capacity rises from 60 to 100 guests, which gives a couple or a host a room for a ceremony or reception plus an outdoor area.
Rooms and capacities
The indoor capacity is up to 60 guests. Adding the private walled garden raises it to 100. The operator provides floor plans for the layout options. There is a small kitchen for caterers and event preparation, and three guest bathrooms. Storage is limited, so confirm what you need to leave on site before booking.
Catering
Catering is arranged with the operator's trusted sustainable partners, with options for breakfast, lunch, refreshments, drinks and canapé receptions. External catering is allowed with prior approval. The on-site kitchen is intended for caterers and event preparation.
History and setting
The building is a Grade II listed warehouse with exposed brick, industrial beams and plush furnishings. The Lounge is one of several spaces run by the Menier Venues team in London Bridge, which also include the Penthouse on the fifth floor, the Playhouse and a number of meeting rooms.
Getting there
The Menier estate is about a three-minute walk from London Bridge station, close to Borough Market. The Lounge is on the first floor, reached by stairs, and the operator's FAQ also mentions lift access, so confirm step-free access with the team. There is no on-site parking. Guests can use the nearby Ibis car park on Thrale Street, and the team can help with unloading.
