Description

Step back in time at one of London's grandest private clubs, The National Liberal Club, for your sophisticated historical wedding. It's no surprise this building was designed by the same architect as The National History Museum as its grand structure echoes its historical importance. Film-makers certainly think so, having featured The National Liberal Club in numerous television projects including Downton Abbey and The Crown. Originally functioning as a place of relaxation for Britain’s most eminent and liberal statesmen to socialise with those of differing backgrounds, this venue exists as an important landmark and could be the next chapter in your story. Facilities and Capacity Experience the unique charm and atmosphere of this Victorian venue. From the moment you step inside you will find yourself staring up in awe at the beautifully adorned high ceiling and the chandeliers dangling down. Feast your eyes on the magnificent spiralling staircase, placing one foot in front of the other until you reach the landing. Beneath this intricate stained glass ceiling you may choose whether you would like to turn left to the Dining Room or right to the Smoking Room. Overlooking the Thames, the Club's extravagant dining area provides the ideal location for wedding receptions and breakfasts. The Smoking Room is the largest of those in the venue. Framed by a series of stately pillars, this cosy space is the perfect place to say “I do” or dance the night away. Services Offered The National Liberal Club offers a variety of wedding packages. Their services include a cloakroom, cutlery, furniture, glassware, hosts, linen, tableware and waiting staff. Menu tasting is also available. Reach out to the team at The National Liberal Club to find out more about hosting your wedding.

The most amazing place I’ve ever been!

The most amazing place I’ve ever been! Great dinner, amazing location. I felt I was in one of Sherlock Holmes venues. Back in the ‘800.

Renowned

Amazing decor from a renowned architect of the 19th Century in a building with the feeling of an Italian palazzo. There is an extensive library spread across many of the rooms. In addition to the normal, larger capacity spaces available for dining or chatting with friends, there are many smaller but atmospheric rooms perfect for small groups, either meeting or dining together.

Majestic

Majestic but not gaudy Victorian decor including scultures, portrait paints (e.g. Churchill & Lloyd George) High ceilings, chandeliers, grand red carpeted spiraling staircase, bar and dining restaurant with good food at very reasonable prices for location. In good weather you can enjoy views of the Thames on a long wide balcony

FAB!

Great dinner fabulous surroundings. Went to a society dinner, food was classic British, beef and mushroom pie followed by parking and custard. Tasty and a trip down memory lane. Wines were good and the company and surroundings excellent.

Fantastic

Fantastic building, decor and ambience. Great staff. Lovely food. A very enjoyable lunch/afternoon. Thoroughly recommended but you can't just walk in (as far as I'm aware), you need a member to sign you in.
