Restaurants with Private Rooms in London
London has plenty of restaurants with private rooms. Some are beautiful. Some are useful. Some feel like someone found a basement and called it “exclusive”.
At The Laundry Brixton, private dining feels a little more human. Warm rooms, proper food, good wine, cocktails, a covered and heated terrace, and a team who understand that private does not have to mean formal.
Set in the heart of Brixton on Coldharbour Lane, The Laundry is an all-day neighbourhood restaurant, café and wine shop with private dining spaces, group dining menus and event options for everything from intimate dinners to larger parties.
Private rooms with Brixton energy
Private dining should still feel connected to the restaurant. That is the point.
The Laundry’s lower ground floor private dining spaces, La Table de Carmen and The Drying Room, give groups a more tucked-away setting without losing the warmth of the bistro. They work well for birthdays, office parties, family lunches, intimate dinners, client meals and celebrations that need a proper table, not a velvet rope.
It is private dining with less performance and more personality. Very Brixton. Very useful.
From 12 to 36 guests downstairs
For group dining, The Laundry can host 12 to 36 guests in the lower ground floor spaces.
La Table de Carmen seats up to 20 guests, while The Drying Room seats up to 14. For larger bookings, the adjoining rooms can open into one larger space for 20 to 34 guests, or 36 at a squeeze.
If you are searching for restaurants with private dining rooms in London, this is a good option for groups that want a semi-private space, a set menu and a team who know how to keep the evening moving without hovering.
Larger events, terrace hire and party space
Sometimes the group is bigger than one room can handle. It happens. People are popular. Or they have a very determined birthday list.
For larger private hire and events, The Laundry can discuss exclusive terrace bookings, with the terrace seating up to 60 for day or evening hire. A combination of the ground floor bar area and terrace can work well for events of 60 to 100 guests, with food and drink pre-ordered.
Canapé functions for up to 45 people standing can also be accommodated in the lower ground floor area, with prices starting from £25 per person for a selection of finger food and canapés.
Food, drinks and a proper set menu
The Laundry’s 2026 group dining set menu is £39 per person for bookings of 12 or more. It begins with complimentary light nibbles, followed by a choice of main course, with meat, fish and vegan choices available, and The Laundry’s famous chocolate mousse to finish.
For a fuller feast, starters can be added for £49 per guest, with three starters, nibbles, main and dessert. Drinks and wines can also be pre-ordered and ready for arrival, because the first drink should not have to fight for attention.
Private dining, without leaving South London
Not every private dining booking needs Mayfair mood lighting and a postcode that makes everyone late.
The Laundry brings private dining to South London with a neighbourhood feel, strong food, thoughtful drinks and rooms that work for real occasions. Close to Brixton station, easy to reach and full of enough character to make the booking feel like more than a table with a curtain.
London has options. This one has warmth.
