Venues by CH&CO enters £2m partnership with Brewers’ Hall

Venues by CH&CO has entered a partnership worth £2m with catering company Brewers’ Hall, set to reopen in April 2022 following its renovation.

The partnership will see Venues by CH&CO exclusively manage and deliver a wide range of events at the Hall over a period of five years – from private dining and corporate dinners, events, meetings and conferences to Livery events, parties and weddings.

Brewers’ Hall said it has been restored to “honour” the heritage and activity of the company and grandeur of the historical venue, whilst offering a “fresh, versatile” event space with state-of-the-art AV facilities. It also remains a hub for research and education within the brewing industry.

Karen Poynter, Venues by CH&CO’s company chef, is heading up the menu development and delivery for Brewers’ Hall’s relaunch, with menus specially designed to feature different types of beer. With 15 years’ experience in the Livery field and having received the Freedom of the City of London in recognition of her work, Poytner’s expertise is highly respected.

Venues said it will introduce guest menus curated by members of CH&CO’s Gathered Table, an initiative that brings together the brightest experts in hospitality to inspire, develop and work in collaboration with its chefs.

Guests will enjoy a plant based tasting menu and a health and wellbeing breakfast, endorsed by Dr Rupi Aujila, plus bespoke menus from Ixta Belfrage, as well as José Pizarro, to name just a few.

Nick Tindal, clerk and CEO of the Brewers’ company, said: “It is brilliant to be able to welcome guests back to the historic home of the UK brewing industry and we are very excited to be doing that in partnership with the team at CH&CO.”

Katy Thompson, managing director for Venues by CH&CO, added: “We’re absolutely thrilled to be continuing our partnership with Brewers’ Hall and being part of the next chapter for the magnificent, historic venue.”
