London's Livery Halls


For those in the know, London’s Livery Halls make fabulous unique venues for meetings, weddings, parties and dinners, and many are catered for by the City’s top catering companies. 
Vintners Hall

Livery Hall - Haberdashers

There are more than one hundred Livery Halls in the City of London representing practically every craft or trade. The Livery Halls tend to consist of, a main Livery Hall and a Council Chamber. Most are steeped in history and tradition and only until relatively recently have they opened their doors to the venue hire market.






Two favourites are, Vintners Hall and Haberdashers’ Hall. Both Halls suffered after the Great Fire of London (1666) and whilst Vintners still retains many of its beautifully crafted features, Haberdashers had an impressive new Hall built in 2001.


Haberdashers' Hall Courtyard
Uniquely, both venues have outside spaces; Vintners Hall has a small rooftop drinks area with views over to St Paul’s Cathedral, whilst Haberdashers has a wonderful outside courtyard complete with fountain making a great space for summer cocktail receptions and barbeques.

  1. Nice post! These venues also look huge and perfect for holding grand events. Our business meet is also going to be organized at such a beautiful local meeting space San Francisco. Want to host it to perfection and without any hiccups.
