Party Venue Recommendations

Looking for a venue in the Hertford/Ware locality for a 40th birthday party next year, ideally with pay bar facilities (not a pub though unless its got a function room upstairs maybe). Would need to accommodate 100-150 people. Any suggestions or recommendations?

In Hertford, you could try the White Horse Hotel at Hertingfordbury or what about Hertford Rugby Club? In Ware you could try Waggers Social Club or Wodson Park. You could also try The Roebuck Hotel. I have a regular meeting there and find the management extremely helpful and the service very good.

Mayflower Place in Hertingfordbury has the space and bar facilities to meet those requirements.

I think the drill hall in Ware has a pay bar.

You could try Leahoe Social Club in the grounds at the back of County Hall. Bar and very large bar area too. Will accommodate 100+ and do the catering. We had a very alrge party there with live band and choir, so worth a look. Can't rememver the number, but ring 01992.555555 and ask to be put through. Good luck.

Would definitely recommend the Three Lakes Restaurant at Westmill Farm (Ware). They have a Large Barn that is a function room with a bar. We had our 30th birthday party there, and are going to a 50th next month. The service was great. They also organised a late licence for the bar as well. http://www.ribvalleyfishinglakes.com/three_lakes_restuarant.htm

Talking of party venues, anyone know of a venue that will hold 200-300 people with own bar but not essential anywhere between Ware and Hatfield, preferably more so in this area but we're willing to be felxible!

there are very few places that will hold that number. Tewinbury Farm have a marquee large enough, not sure what the max numbers are for the new Fletchers Lea in ware that is quite large. Otherwise maybe Wodson park or a similar sports venue? Most of the other places I know of are further out, Gt Wymondley, High Wych etc.

Hertford Rugby club on Hoe Lane will hold that many people and has a bar large enough to cope. http://www.hertfordrfc.co.uk

As I said above "The Three Lakes Restaurant" can hold up to 250 guests, and it has it's own bar.

Does anyone know of a slightly smaller place that we could hold a party for about 50-80 people? With pay bar, ideally a pub with beer garden that can let us hire a room/tables. We were planning to have it at the Cowper Arms but the area manager turned our request down.
