About Full Venue and Garden Hire
300 Standing / Reception
150 Seated
When Sunday jazz drifts through our garden at The Alwyne Castle, you know you're in the heart of Highbury life. Taking over our entire venue means you get every corner of this beloved pub, from the bustling main bar to our sprawling garden where locals gather 300-strong on sunny afternoons. The main bar anchors your celebration with its polished wooden counter stretching along one wall, craft beers and spirits gleaming under pendant lights. We've kept the atmosphere warm with dark walls, local artwork, and touches of greenery throughout. Your guests can perch on high stools or sink into comfortable chairs, drinks in hand, while the space flows naturally between mingling zones and quieter corners for conversation. Our dining room transforms beautifully for seated celebrations. Wooden tables catch the light streaming through large windows during daytime events, while evenings turn intimate with candles flickering across place settings. We can seat 150 comfortably here, serving everything from our famous Sunday roasts to fish and chips that keep groups coming back. The room opens onto other spaces, so even formal dinners keep that relaxed pub energy flowing. Outside, we've created three distinct areas across our garden, each heated and covered for year-round parties. Fairy lights weave through the trees, candles dot the tables, and our dedicated BBQ zone becomes party central when the weather warms up. The outdoor bar means nobody misses a moment heading inside for refills. Whether you're planning a summer birthday bash or December office party, the garden works brilliantly with our heaters keeping everyone comfortable. With space for 400 standing guests across all areas, or 150 seated in our dining room, we handle everything from milestone birthdays to company celebrations. Just minutes from Highbury & Islington station, your guests arrive easily and stay late, caught up in the atmosphere we've perfected over countless celebrations.
