💍 Midweek wedding? Saturday afternoon wedding? Why not! 🥂

We actually hosted two weddings last weekend and four over the last month — and we’ve absolutely loved every one of them. 🫶

If you’re looking for somewhere a little different to host your wedding reception, come and have a chat with us at Artisan.

No two weddings need to be the same. We can tailor the day to suit you — your timings, your style, your guests and how you want to celebrate.

Big party, relaxed afternoon, midweek celebration or something completely your own… let’s see what we can do.

💌 Drop us a message and let’s have a chat.

💗🎤 THE LADIES ARE TAKING OVER ARTISAN… AND NEXT UP IS SARAH LOUISE! 🎤💗

Our Ladies Only Artists Season continues through September & October, putting some fantastic female live talent centre stage at Artisan.

🎤 SARAH LOUISE
📅 Saturday 19th September
⏰ Live from 9:30pm till late

Sarah is taking us on a musical trip through the decades — from the 60s right through to today. 🎶

Think songs you know, songs you’d forgotten you loved and plenty that will have you singing along and heading for the dance floor.

🎵 60s
💃 70s
🪩 80s
🎤 90s
🔥 00s
❤️ Right through to NOW!

Something for everyone.

And have you noticed the country boots? 👀🤠 We’re thinking there might just be a little country thrown into the mix too… 😉

Around 70% of our social media followers are women, so this season we’re sharing the love and giving the ladies the spotlight. 💗

Lads — you are VERY welcome too! 😂🍺

🍸 Cocktails flowing
🎤 Live music
💃 Dancing
🥂 Good vibes

Ladies centre stage. Lads very welcome. Everybody on the dance floor.

🍾 Planning a party ?

We’re receiving lots of enquiries from guests who, for one reason or another, would prefer to supply their own food—and that’s perfectly fine with us!

We don’t make any money from the buffets we provide, so we’re more than happy for you to bring your own food or arrange your own catering.

It can also save you having to pay a larger deposit or meet a minimum bar-spend target, making your celebration simpler and more affordable.

Every party is different, so just tell us what works best for you and we’ll do our best to make it happen. 🥂🎉

📩 Message us to discuss your date and party plans.

Something WILD is coming to Artisan… 🍺🌾

Hawkstone Wildthing — new limited-edition lager — will be arriving next week.

WHY PAY A LARGE VENUE-HIRE FEE BEFORE THE PARTY HAS EVEN STARTED? 👀

At Artisan Café & Wine Bar, we work around an agreed minimum bar spend rather than charging a traditional room-hire fee.

Depending on your booking, we can also provide:

🍽️ A complimentary buffet
🎧 Your own DJ
📸 A personal slideshow across our screens
🥂 A superb drinks selection
♿ Full accessibility
🎉 Space for up to 120 guests

Your guests are going to buy drinks anyway—so why spend hundreds hiring an empty room?

Message us with your preferred date, occasion and estimated numbers, and we’ll explain exactly how it works.
