About Event Area
30 Banquet
50 Standing / Reception
Our Event Area transforms from morning business meetings to evening celebrations with remarkable ease. Through those striking floor-to-ceiling windows, you'll watch Smithfield Fish Markets come alive as daylight fades into the glow of market lights, creating a natural progression for any gathering. The exposed wooden floors and contemporary fixtures give the space character without trying too hard, while our chalkboard menus add a touch of Manchester's creative quarter spirit. We've configured this room for everything from 30-person seated dinners to 50-guest cocktail receptions, and the flow just works. Groups often start with drinks at our well-stocked bar, where guests naturally gather around the polished wood counter before moving to dinner. The open kitchen adds energy to the room, with glimpses of our team plating up Anthony Fielden's seasonal British dishes becoming part of the entertainment. The flexibility here means your event unfolds exactly as you envision. For corporate functions, we arrange classroom-style seating with full AV support. Birthday parties might see long banquet tables dressed for celebration, while product launches often use the space as an open gallery with food stations. The acoustics handle both presenter microphones and party playlists equally well, without that harsh echo that plagues so many restaurant spaces. Transport couldn't be simpler, with Manchester's Northern Quarter location putting you right in the heart of the city's creative district. Piccadilly Station sits just a short walk away, and numerous bus routes stop nearby. While the surrounding streets offer plenty of pre-event possibilities, most groups find themselves settling in for the entire evening once they experience the combination of great food, flowing drinks, and that mesmerising market view.
