About Whole Bar Hire
100 Standing / Reception
60 Seated
The checkerboard floor catches your eye first as you descend into our underground cocktail bar. Take over the entire space at WM Barker & Co for your next celebration, where exposed brick walls and warm wooden surfaces create the perfect backdrop for parties that matter. Our Whole Bar Hire gives you exclusive access to everything we've built beneath Bishopsgate. The space comfortably holds 100 guests for standing receptions or 60 for seated events, with high tables scattered throughout for natural gathering spots. Those marquee letters spelling "WB" have witnessed countless birthday toasts and launch party speeches, while our illuminated bar shelves showcase the spirits collection that keeps our cocktail menu evolving. Watch our bartenders work their magic from any angle, thanks to the open bar design that puts the craft on display. We've learned what works from hosting everything from 30th birthdays to corporate Christmas parties, so we know how to adapt the space to your vision. Want cocktail masterclasses for your hen party? We'll set up stations. Planning a networking event? Our sharing boards and craft beer buckets keep conversations flowing. The industrial feel works brilliantly for parties, with ambient lighting that sets the mood without overpowering conversation. Just a minute from Liverpool Street station, guests find us easily tucked beneath Dirty Dicks pub at 202 Bishopsgate. Our late licence means proper celebrations can continue until 1am on Saturdays, while the underground location keeps your party contained and private. We open Wednesday and Thursday from 6pm to midnight, Friday from 5pm to midnight, and Saturday from 5pm to 1am. Whether you're organizing a stag do, product launch, or gathering friends for milestone birthdays, exclusive hire means the space becomes yours for the night.
