If you are looking for an elegant setting for a casual post-ceremony dinner, large group dinner, and a location for your ceremony, the all-season, fully weather-proof, heated terrace has much to offer.
Whether you are having your ceremony on our terrace, or interested in starting the evening’s festivities with a cocktail reception, our second-floor main bar offers an elegant and historic setting, delicious artisanal cocktails, thirst-quenching draft beer, and a curated list of wines by the glass. We can offer featured cocktails and a delicious selection of hot and cold canapés.
If you are looking for a single venue for the ceremony, cocktail reception, and dinner, we are equipped with an intimate space for a ceremony on the McLaren side of our all-season terrace. The in-house ceremony option is available with a full-terrace buy-out. See full-terrace buy-out package for pricing.
The Half Terrace Buy-Out is a great option for groups of 30 who don’t require full privacy and are interested in a post off-site ceremony wedding reception. We are situated only a 9-minute walk from City Hall! This option is also ideal for couples looking to have a belated wedding dinner following a destination wedding. Begin your evening with exclusive use of the main bar for a cocktail hour, followed by a sit-down dinner with a prix fixe menu and curated wine for the occasion. You will have your own dedicated servers and exclusive use of the Elgin side of the terrace. See the Half Terrace Buy-Out package for pricing.
If you are planning an intimate wedding with a maximum of 50 guests, the full terrace buy-out option is ideal. The ceremony space can seat up to 30 guests, with additional standing room. Guests can enjoy a cocktail hour at our main bar while our staff sets the full terrace for dinner. With this configuration, we can arrange two long tables, with a separate "sweetheart" table for the couple. AV equipment can be rented for speeches if desired. The full terrace buy-out will give you exclusive use of the space, the main bar during cocktail hour, and complete privacy for your event. See our FAQ regarding accessibility.
