Hydrant
Right next to the iconic Monument, The Hydrant is a two-storey City pub that also offers a delicious menu of pub grub and small plates. Sink into their plush leather booths, surrounded by exposed brick walls and firefighting memorabilia, while tucking into dishes like braised beef ciabatta, beer-battered haddock with chips or a spinach and potato bhaji burger.
You can hire the full venue for a maximum of 400 gusts, or make use of their mezzanine that can fit anywhere between 45 and 150 people at a time. Plus, they've got a more intimate private room that seats 12.
