Located in the heart of London’s historic Square Mile, 1 Lombard Street offers an impressive setting for corporate parties, private events and business celebrations.

An Iconic Setting for Corporate Parties in London

The venue is housed in a beautiful Grade II listed former banking hall, making it an impressive choice for businesses looking for something special. Its elegant dining room sits beneath a spectacular glass cupola dome, creating a distinctive architectural feature that adds character to corporate celebrations.

Since 1998, 1 Lombard Street has been a meeting place in London’s Square Mile, welcoming guests for breakfast, lunch, dinner and Saturday brunch. Its established reputation for hospitality makes it an appealing destination for companies wanting to bring colleagues, clients and business partners together.

The historic surroundings provide a sophisticated backdrop for different types of corporate occasions. From relaxed celebrations to more elaborate evening events, the venue offers an atmosphere that balances professional elegance with welcoming hospitality.

Flexible Private Dining and Event Spaces

Every corporate party has different requirements. Some businesses may want an intimate gathering for a small group of colleagues, while others may be planning a larger celebration involving employees, clients and professional contacts.

1 Lombard Street offers private dining and event arrangements designed to accommodate different occasions. Its experienced Events team works closely with organisers to coordinate the details and help bring their expectations to life.

The venue’s spaces provide flexibility for different types of celebrations. The Brasserie can host celebratory meals for between 60 and 200 guests, with additional room for a dance floor. For standing events, the space can accommodate up to 400 guests.

For smaller corporate gatherings, 1776 provides a versatile alternative. Located towards the rear of The Brasserie, this room benefits from plenty of natural daylight and can accommodate between 20 and 90 guests.

These options make 1 Lombard Street a suitable consideration for businesses searching for private event venues in London, whether they are organising a formal dinner, a company celebration or a more relaxed corporate party.

Professional Event Planning with a Personal Touch

Planning a corporate party requires attention to detail. Organisers need to consider the guest experience, event arrangements and the overall atmosphere to ensure everything comes together smoothly.

At 1 Lombard Street, the dedicated Events team works closely with clients to coordinate private occasions. From initial discussions to the finer details of the celebration, the team focuses on understanding individual expectations and helping create an event that reflects the organiser’s requirements.

This personal approach is particularly valuable for corporate events, where different businesses have different objectives. A company may want to create a relaxed environment for employees to socialise, while another may be looking for an elegant setting to entertain important clients.

The flexibility of the venue allows organisers to explore different possibilities and create an occasion that feels appropriate for their company.

Exceptional Dining for Corporate Celebrations

Food is an essential part of any successful corporate party. Whether guests are enjoying a celebratory meal or gathering for a private business occasion, quality dining helps create a welcoming atmosphere and encourages people to connect.

1 Lombard Street has been serving the City since 1998, offering all-day dining from Monday to Saturday. Its established restaurant setting provides an excellent foundation for hospitality, while its private dining and event facilities allow guests to enjoy occasions in a more exclusive environment.

The venue also has a connection with Goosebox Catering, which was born from 1 Lombard Street Restaurant & Bar. Goosebox takes the restaurant’s approach to hospitality beyond its doors, creating bespoke experiences and seasonal, homemade dishes using carefully sourced ingredients.

Its focus on creative flair, flexibility, sustainability and provenance makes it an interesting option for businesses looking for catering for corporate occasions. Goosebox brings the energy, precision and style associated with 1 Lombard Street to events in different locations.
