About The Bar Area (New..)
60 Banquet
85 Standing / Reception
The Bar Area at The Running Horse really comes alive when filled with people, and we've seen everything from product launches to 40th birthdays work brilliantly in this space. Right off Aldgate East tube, you'll find us tucked into the heart of E1, where the energy of the city meets the warmth of a proper London pub. We've designed this semi-private area to handle up to 85 standing guests or 60 seated, with a clever mix of high tables for mingling and those gorgeous brown leather banquettes that everyone gravitates towards. The space flows naturally between different zones, so your networking event won't feel cramped, and your birthday party has room to breathe. Those big windows flooding natural light across the rustic wooden floors create the kind of atmosphere that makes afternoon drinks turn into evening celebrations. Our position right next to the main bar means your guests won't be waiting around for drinks. We're pouring everything from craft beers fresh from those gleaming tanks you spotted on the way in, to classic cocktails and a wine list we're properly proud of. The in-house kitchen can sort you with anything from canapés to full meals, with plenty of vegan and gluten-free options that actually taste good. Tech-wise, we've got you covered with WiFi throughout, a projector for presentations, and a PA system that handles everything from background music to proper speeches. Air conditioning keeps things comfortable year-round, and when the weather's playing nice, the adjacent terrace gives you that outdoor option. The whole space is wheelchair accessible via our lift, and our license runs until 11 PM, giving you proper time to celebrate. Whether you're planning engagement drinks, a business social, or just getting the team together for something different, The Bar Area offers that sweet spot between polished and relaxed.
