Right, let's talk about something that'll make your festive planning SO much easier this year. You know that feeling when you're trying to organise a proper celebration for your mates, work crew, or family, and everywhere you look is either booked solid or charging the earth? Well, we've got news that'll make you want to do a little happy dance.
Groups of 10 or more get £10 cocktails for the ENTIRE duration of their booking with us.
Yes, you read that right. Ten pound cocktails. Not just for the first round, not just for an hour – for your whole bloody celebration. If that doesn't get you excited about festive group dining, we don't know what will!
Why Group Dining at The Laundry Just Hits Different
Look, we get it. Group dining can be a bit of a nightmare to organise. Someone's always got dietary requirements, there's always that one person who's "not sure if they can make it," and don't even get us started on trying to split the bill at the end. But here's the thing – we've been doing this for years, and we've got it down to an art form.
Our group dining isn't just about shoving a bunch of tables together and hoping for the best. We're talking proper, dedicated spaces designed specifically for celebrations, with a team that knows exactly how to make your group feel like VIPs without any of the stress.
The Festive Package That'll Make You the Hero of the Group Chat
Here's what we're serving up this festive season, and trust us, it's going to make you look like an absolute legend for organising it.
The Deal: £39 per person gets you a proper feast – we're talking a 2-course set menu that starts with complimentary light nibbles (because who doesn't love a bit of something tasty while you're catching up and getting the party started?). Then you've got your choice of mains – and yes, we've ALWAYS got meat, fish, and vegan options because we're not monsters – followed by our famous tiramisù that'll have everyone asking for the recipe (spoiler: we're not telling).
Want to make it even more special? Add starters for £49 per guest and you'll get a selection of three starters, those nibbles, your main, AND dessert. It's basically the works, and your group will be talking about it well into the new year.
But here's where it gets really good – those £10 cocktails we mentioned? They're not your basic house spirits. We're talking about our Dirty Set cocktails, the ones that usually cost significantly more, available at this special price for your entire group throughout your whole booking. Whether you're here for 2 hours or pushing the full 3.5 hours we allocate (and let's be honest, with cocktails this good, you probably will be), you're sorted.
The Spaces That'll Make Your Celebration Properly Special
We've got two absolutely gorgeous private dining spaces downstairs that are perfect for groups who want to celebrate without the rest of the restaurant listening in on Uncle Dave's questionable Christmas jokes.
La Table de Carmen is our larger space – it seats up to 20 people and it's got this lovely long, narrow setup that's perfect for those proper feast moments where everyone's chatting across the table and the conversation flows as freely as the wine.
The Drying Room is a bit more intimate – perfect for up to 14 guests and has this lovely relaxed vibe that makes everyone feel right at home. It's less formal but still special enough that people will be taking photos for their Instagram stories.
Need something bigger? No worries – we can open up both spaces into one larger area and accommodate anywhere from 20-34 guests (and if you're really nice to us and it's a special occasion, we can squeeze in 36 at a push).
The Food That'll Have Everyone Asking "How Did You Find This Place?"
Let's talk about what actually lands on the plates, because this is where we really show off. Our set menus aren't those sad, limited affairs you get at some places where you're choosing between "chicken or fish" and that's it. We're proper foodies here, and it shows.
The complimentary nibbles kick things off perfectly – think of them as the opening act that gets everyone in the mood. Then we move into mains that change seasonally because we're all about using the best ingredients when they're at their peak. You'll always find something that makes your mouth water, whether you're a committed carnivore, love your fish, or you're fully plant-based.
And that chocolate mousse? Look, we don't want to oversell it, but people have been known to book tables just for the dessert. It's THAT good.
The Cocktails That'll Make This Celebration Legendary
Now, let's dive deeper into those £10 cocktails because they deserve their own moment. Our Dirty Set isn't your average cocktail menu – these are the drinks our bartenders get properly excited about making. We're talking carefully crafted, beautifully presented cocktails that usually command premium prices.
Picture this: your group's settled in, the nibbles are flowing, and everyone's ordering proper cocktails without wincing at the price. It's the kind of thing that takes a good celebration and makes it absolutely brilliant. Whether someone's a whiskey person, loves their gin, or prefers something fruity and fun, we've got cocktails that'll keep everyone happy.
Why Early Booking Is Your Friend (Seriously, Don't Sleep on This)
Here's the thing about festive season bookings – the good spots get snapped up faster than you can say "Christmas party." We're already taking bookings for the season, and our private dining spaces are filling up with groups who've figured out that booking early means getting their first choice of dates.
Plus, there's something quite lovely about having your celebration sorted well in advance. No last-minute scrambling, no settling for somewhere that's "fine, I guess," just the satisfaction of knowing you've got a proper celebration planned.
Each group gets their own dedicated host for the event (because nobody should have to hunt down staff when they need something), and we give you 3.5 hours to properly enjoy yourselves. That's enough time for everyone to arrive fashionably late, get settled, work through the menu at a civilised pace, and still have time for those "one more cocktail" moments that make the best celebrations memorable.
The Practical Bits (Because Someone Has to Think About These Things)
Right, let's get the admin sorted. There's a 12.5% discretionary service charge, and we pass every penny of that directly to our kitchen and front-of-house team because they're the ones making your celebration brilliant.
Payment-wise, you can sort it out however works best for your group – pay together at the end if someone's treating, or go individual if that's easier. We're flexible because we know groups work differently.
There's a 7-day cancellation policy for groups (life happens, we get it), and if it's someone's birthday, bring your own cake! We won't charge you for it because birthdays deserve proper cake, not whatever we've got lying around.
