Caterers working in the space must be licensed.
Bartending companies working in the space must be licensed and their bartenders must have their Basset certification.
All vendors working in the space must have insurance and provide us with a copy (COI) 30 days in advance of event date.
You can choose to have a full-service caterer for your event. We also allow for drop off catering or you can bring your own food.
Any caterer that is stepping foot into the venue, even for drop-off catering is required to provide a COI (insurance).
If the event is a dry event, therefore no alcohol of any kind is being served, the client may bring non-alcoholic beverages to the venue and serve them without a bartender.
When alcohol will be served at an event, a licensed bartender is required.
If the client has a full-service caterer that also has a license to serve, the client may use that caterer for their bartending services. If the client is providing their own food or having it dropped off, the client must use the venue’s exclusive bartending company, Maison Cuisine.
The venue is a BYOB venue which means the client can source their own alcohol, use the help of a delivery service (ex: Binny’s), use the service of a full-service caterer, or use our exclusive bartending company. This means the client has a few options for how and what beverages they would like served:
Clients may have their caterer or bartender manage the full bar service including bringing in the alcohol, garnishments, mixers, ice, drinkware (glass is not allowed), etc. along with providing the bartending staff.
Clients may bring in their own alcohol and then have their caterer or bartender bring in the garnishments, mixers, ice, glassware, etc. along with providing the bartending staff.
Clients may bring in their own alcohol, garnishments, mixers, ice, glassware, etc. and then have their caterer or bartender just provide the bartending staff.
We welcome parties, fundraisers, corporate events, holiday parties, social events, milestone events (birthdays, baby showers), engagements, engagement parties, wedding rehearsal dinners, private dinners, etc.
Ticketed events are only permitted for non-profit (501(c)3) organizations.
