Treat your colleagues to an afternoon out of the office and put on a successful and inspiring corporate event in one of our Greene King pubs, inns or restaurants with a meeting room for hire. From grand country buildings to historic market town pubs, each of our venues provide a distinctive location to host your business events, whether you're looking for somewhere to host a conference, a board meeting, a few training sessions or to simply provide your team with a unique office space or meeting room for the day.
Wherever you choose, you’ll find a professional yet informal atmosphere, with modern technology such as video conference equipment and office supplies to suit all your business requirements. And of course, all the fabulous food and drink you’d expect from a Greene King pub with a meeting room.
The ideal meeting room for your corporate event
When it comes to hosting successful corporate events – whether that’s a conference, a business seminar, a workshop or a team-building session off-site – the venue you pick will play a pivotal role as first impressions always matter. The right location will set the tone for collaboration, facilitate smooth and effective teamwork, and most importantly provide a setting that’s distinct from the office and that will inspire. You’ll find all of that in our Greene King function rooms for meetings.
Each Greene King pub is unique. Each has its own distinctive look and charm. And that’s carried through to our function rooms for team building days and corporate events. Rather than generic meeting rooms or conference rooms in an office space location, treat your team to something a little different. Whether that’s a traditional coaching inn, a rustic country tavern with an open fire or a welcoming pub with a lakeside view.
Choose experienced and professional service
At Greene King, we combine traditional settings with modern facilities and a polished service. We can adapt our function rooms to your requirements and provide a range of meeting equipment, from large pads of paper on stands to projection equipment and reliable WiFi. And naturally, as a Greene King pub, your team can enjoy convenient catering with our great tasting food and fantastic range of drinks.
As well as providing function rooms and workplaces, your team will be able to relax and unwind in an attractive and characterful setting, whether that’s during a break, a stop for lunch or team drinks after the work is done. Many of our Greene King locations are hotels, offering you the option to stay overnight in case you’re planning a longer corporate event.
Our most frequently asked questions
What sort of rooms do you offer?
When it comes to meeting rooms and office spaces with a difference, our selection of workspaces are as unique as our pubs themselves, ranging from modern rooms to spaces filled with history and heritage. So take your time and have a good look at our selection of meeting rooms for hire up and down the country. If you're looking for an more characterful place to hold your next work meeting in Cheshire, why not try the Watergates Bar in Chester? Built into a medieval crypt and dating back to the 12th Century, this pub has full of atmosphere and historic charm – as long as you don't mind sharing it with the resident ghosts.
Can you change the layout of the room into a conference space or office space?
Whether you're giving a lecture, leading a training session or looking enjoy a collaborative team catchup, the right room layout can make all the difference, and most of our meeting rooms for hire can be changed into a variety of seating arrangements, from a theatre layout to a classroom layout, simple U-shaped conferences layout or a simple event space with furniture at the sides. The meeting room at the Holmfield Arms in Wakefield can be changed into one of seven (yes, seven!) different configurations, all with the same amazing service from our team and tasty food and drink when you feel like taking a break.
What's included in my booking?
From ample power points to projection equipment, built-in sound speakers to handy pens and paper for note-taking, our pubs with meeting rooms for hire have a range of helpful features all included in your booking – contact your chosen pub with a meeting room for hire to see what's available to you.
Do you have any meeting rooms near places to stay?
We've all been at a conference or board meeting that's left us feeling a little drained afterwards, and there's nothing better than a simple few steps into a cosy bed, which is why many of our Greene King Inns have meeting rooms and function rooms attached, so you can head straight to your room for a well-deserved nap after a long day. Take the Coleshill Hotel in Birmingham for example. A quick drive from Birmingham Airport, this hotel boasts a sizeable meeting room that can easily fit up to 200 delegates, in a range of layouts from a boardroom to a theatre style, and if that's not good enough, the hotel also offers inclusive package for people working, eating and staying within its walls.
Do you provide food and drink in the meeting room?
It wouldn't be a meeting at a Greene King pub without tasty food and drink to enjoy, would it? We're well known for everything from burgers to fish & chips, pub classics to all-day breakfasts so make sure you plan in a long break for lunch, because you'll need it. Our food menus are filled with a delicious range of starters, sharers, mains and desserts, and many of our pubs with meeting rooms for hire also offer catering packaging or pre-orders so you can refuel whenever's best for you and your team.
