Booked the downstairs bar for my 30th Birthday and had a brilliant time! I didn't want anything too formal, just a space to drink a few cocktails and have a dance and it was perfect (esp as there was no hire charge). I ordered some platters of food which went down really well with my friends and we got our own bartender and private bar! Highly recommended!

Went to The Well for drinks on the weekend, their cocktails are great and you should try the strawberry eclair. Delicious!

Don't use this place for private parties.
Halloween weekend... Saturday night... Bar staff kept turning our music down to elevator music level.
I must have spent over £100 at the bar too.
Avoid!

Had my 40th birthday party there on Saturday (I also had my 30th there which was great too). It's stood the test of time well. Great venue, nice atmosphere with candles etc. Sound system good - was worried music wouldn't be loud enough but worked really well with my IPod and meticulously compiled playlist. Food and canapes were great - so many people complimented me on the night and even today I've had people raving about the mini Yorkshire puddings and chillies stuffed with cheese. Staff were great on the day (and in run up to event) very flexible, accommodating and professional. Highly recommended for birthday/private party.

I just had my 40th birthday party here on saturday night. I though the venue and the staff were brilliant. There were no problems whatsoever and everyone was so helpful. The venue looked really stylist - great lighting, far better than the pics on the website. And even though the capacity is 70 it still feel really intimate and cosy with lots of corners to sits in etc....I totally recommend this place as a party venue, had a great night, thanks!

I held my 40th Birthday Party at The Well in Clerkenwell on Saturday and had a great time! Easy to organise, helpful planning, and an excellent sound system which made my IPod playlist sound really professional. We had a lovely meal upstairs followed by a private party downstairs. There was a funky atmosphere, delicious food and fabulous staff! What more could you want; I definitely recommend it! Thanks guys!

Booked the downstairs bar for my boyfriend's 35th birthday and had an absolute blast. The staff were fantastic, really accommodating and friendly, and excellent cocktail makers. The bar itself is great with lots of places to sit and some really funky fish-tanks. Looks completely different to the main bar upstairs! The best thing about booking the bar downstairs is that you get your own barman. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a fun yet chilled venue for a party. Top notch!
