Boasting an excellent central location in the heart of Fitzrovia, Bennie is a restaurant and bar offering a unique venue space suitable for everything from business meetings to private parties. Usually an all-day restaurant and bar, Bennie serves a modern European menu with international influences, alongside an enticing cocktail list.
Situated in the basement and secluded from the main dining area, the private dining room is available for a variety of events, from corporate lunches and presentations to intimate dinners and family celebrations. With an industrial aesthetic of concrete and mirrored walls, monochrome tiled flooring and a large table, this versatile space is somewhat of a blank canvas that can be easily transformed to suit your event. The room can accommodate up to 20 guests seated and has facilities like a full-sized projector, ideal for displaying slides and images.
Larger events might be interested in opting for hire of the ground floor area. This semi-private space can host up to 40 guests and allows your event to enjoy the ambience of the dining room whilst benefiting from your own space.
Catering is provided in house and can be tailored to specifically suit your needs, whether you’re holding a morning meeting and require trendy brunch dishes or are hosting a seated three-course meal. You could instead opt to stick with the a la carte and dig into its international dishes. For example, start with nibbles like pitted green anchovy flavoured olives, fish bites with homemade tartare sauce, and tenderstem broccoli tempura with satay sauce, before enjoying hearty mains like braised beef short rib, duck breast with celeriac puree, or place meuniere with caper and lemon butter. There are also vegetarian and vegan options should any of your party have dietary requirements.
To drink, there are plenty of cocktails, mocktails, beers and a modest wine list which ranges from bold reds to fruity roses.
