1 Lombard Street

Located in the heart of the City of London, directly opposite Bank Station, 1 Lombard Street is a Grade II listed former banking hall offering a striking setting for corporate events, private dining and receptions. Combining historic architecture with a contemporary restaurant and bar, it delivers a strong balance between character and usability.

At the centre of the venue is a large domed dining room beneath an impressive glass cupola, creating a light-filled, open space ideal for both standing receptions and seated dining. This is supported by a series of private dining rooms and bar areas, allowing events to scale from smaller gatherings through to full venue takeovers.

Catering is delivered in-house, with a focus on modern European menus suited to both formal dining and more relaxed event formats. The venue is particularly strong for City-based corporate events, offering a recognisable location with a layout that supports clear guest flow and efficient service.
