VENUE HIRE
Parties here are suitable for a maximum of 30 guests including children, due to fire safety and just general comfort of guests if the party were to be kept exclusively indoors due to bad weather. People can spread over the two floors and if the weather is dry we can place tables and chairs outside, and kids can even use the park opposite.
The cost for hire of the entire venue (upstairs, downstairs and possible outdoor seating)
is £60 per hour.
Start times for parties on Friday or Saturday would be from 6pm, Monday-Thursday we can make this earlier if you'd prefer. End time would need to be no later than 11:00pm.
DECORATIONS AND MUSIC
Please feel free to bring party decorations, or if you have anything in mind then just give me a yell and we can source some bits for you. We just ask that you’re kind to our existing fixtures and fittings! We can give you access to the upstairs from 5pm to set up, or if you’re happy for us to sort it for you then you can drop some bits off. We will be busy cooking and clearing up after the shop opening hours though, so if you have lots it would be preferable for you to stop by and decorate yourselves please.
BIRTHDAY CAKES
Now, Birthday cakes. As a rule we don’t make them anymore, but we knew that we could not start parties and not offer something!! So, exclusively for party bookings, we can supply a 6”version of one of our counter cakes for you to top with candles and a topper of your choice, and we have the following flavours for you to choose from…
CHOC FUDGE- Original, Choc Orange, Hazelnut, Raspberry
VICTORIA SPONGE
TOFFEE APPLE CRUMBLE CAKE
COFFEE WALNUT
BISCOFF CARAMEL
LEMON LAYER
As pudding is provided at the party, a 6” cake is a perfect size for the traditional sing song and then take home to enjoy. Any toppers or candles do need to be provided by yourself, but we do have a lighter for candles though!! These are £30 each.
DRINKS
Unfortunately we don't currently hold our own alcohol license, however you are able to bring your own booze and we will keep it chilled if need be and supply the glasses. You are welcome to drop this off either the day before or earlier on the day of the party. We just ask that you give us a heads up as to what you will be bringing though please, so we can make sure we have the correct glassware etc.
All soft drinks will need to be supplied by ourselves, and we will still have our large selection of hot and cold drinks available to purchase. We will even make sure the milkshake machine is ready to roll! You can either set up a tab to settle at the end of the party, or guests can pay as they order. Drinks ordered at the event will have a party discount of 10% too.
FOOD!
FOR SHINDIGS
All freshly made on the premises, we pride ourselves on offering a high quality yet homely style of catering and have included as many BakeHouse staples as possible in our menus.
If you have any particular faves that you cannot see in the below lists then please do give us a shout and we'll do our best to make sure they are included. You are free to have an entirely sweet offering, or just savoury if you’d prefer....whatever ya fancy!!
Food would be served approximately 30 minutes after the start of the party, and we would have it all downstairs across our counter for people to help themselves. We’d swap the savoury to sweet treats after a short while, or until people start asking!
It is up to you how much food you would like, but we do recommend catering for slightly less than your expected number, especially if kids are invited, so if you do have a total of 30 guests, then catering for 25 for example. We do have plenty of bags and boxes though, so any leftovers can be packed up to take home!
Everything we offer is made here on the premises, so we do ask that all food supplied is BakeHouse food only please.
