Cricket history surrounds you the moment you step into The Long Room, where portraits of Surrey legends have watched over gatherings since 1898. We've preserved every detail of this extraordinary space, from the rich wood paneling that lines the walls to the crystal chandeliers that catch the afternoon light streaming through our floor-to-ceiling windows. Your guests will dine beneath soaring ceilings while overlooking the famous pitch through those magnificent windows. We can arrange tables for 80 in banquet style, with crisp linens and gleaming silverware reflecting the chandelier light. For larger gatherings, the room comfortably holds 120 for standing receptions, where guests naturally flow between the bar area and the French doors that open directly onto the pitchside. The wood paneling creates remarkable acoustics, particularly appreciated during speeches at formal dinners. We've hosted everything from corporate celebrations to milestone birthdays here, with the cricket ground providing an unexpected backdrop for toasts and conversations. The natural daylight transforms throughout the day, shifting from bright morning sunshine to the golden glow of evening. Our venue sits just one minute from Oval Tube Station, with Vauxhall seven minutes away, placing you in central London whilst avoiding the congestion charge. The room includes air conditioning for summer events and wireless internet throughout. We've ensured full accessibility, with level access and facilities for all guests. Our catering team, partnered with Compass, creates menus using seasonal ingredients that complement the room's traditional elegance. From working lunches on the pitchside terrace to five-course dinners beneath the chandeliers, we handle every detail. The room's versatility extends to various layouts, accommodating U-shaped arrangements for 42 or cabaret style for 64, each configuration maintaining clear sightlines to both speakers and the cricket ground beyond.
