Behind the Arch is where we've carved out something special within The Perky Nel, a semi-private space that keeps you connected to the pub's energy while giving your group room to breathe. Right here at 7-8 Cavendish Parade, just minutes from Clapham South Station, we've created a flexible spot that works brilliantly for everything from rowdy birthday celebrations to those corporate gatherings where teams finally unwind properly. The exposed brick walls and soft lighting set the tone immediately. We've lined one side with plush red banquette seating that everyone gravitates towards, paired with high-backed chairs and solid wooden tables that can be configured however suits your party. Need a boardroom setup for 18? Done. Prefer U-shaped seating for 20? We'll arrange it. Planning drinks and mingling for up to 60 people? The space opens right up. Natural light streams through during daytime events, though most parties here tend to stretch into the evening when our ambient lighting really comes into its own. The decorative mirrors catch the glow from our elegant fixtures, creating an atmosphere that feels both polished and relaxed. We've installed proper air conditioning for summer parties, plus a flatscreen TV and PA system that handle everything from presentations to party playlists. The semi-private nature means you get your own defined space while still feeling the pulse of the pub beyond. It's particularly brilliant when combined with our west-facing terrace overlooking Clapham Common, where guests often spill out between rounds. Our kitchen serves up proper British fare throughout your event, from beer-battered fish and chips to those pies everyone talks about, with plenty of vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free options sorted. Practical bits covered too: accessible toilets, wheelchair access throughout, and paid parking nearby for those driving in. Behind the Arch hits that sweet spot between proper party space and neighborhood pub comfort.
