The work Christmas party, done properly

Whoever got landed with organising it this year, relax. Thirst has been throwing Soho's Christmas parties since 2002, and we keep it simple: pick a date, tell us your numbers, and we'll sort the rest.

Chic cocktail bar upstairs for the drinks and the speeches. DJs and a dance floor downstairs from 9pm for everything after. Open until 3am, so nobody has to move on.

Why Thirst

Everything a Christmas party needs, nothing it doesn't

No room charge. No minimum-spend small print. Award-winning cocktails, non-alcoholic ones for the drivers, grazing nibbles upstairs and proper food to the table from Suvlaki next door.

We're on Greek Street, six minutes from Leicester Square and eight from Piccadilly Circus, so the journey home is easy however late it gets.

How it works

Thursdays and Fridays in early and mid December go first. A midweek night gives you far more choice.

01

Pick two or three dates

Have a couple of options ready so you can say yes straight away when we have space.

02

Tell us your numbers

A rough headcount is fine to start. We'll suggest the right space for the size of your team.

03

Pay the deposit

That holds your date. It comes off your final bill on the night.

04

Confirm final numbers

Two weeks before. Then send the team one message with the time, the address and the dress code.

Enquire about your Christmas party

Or call us on 020 7437 1977 — we reply to every enquiry within one working day.

The boring questions, answered

Is there a hire fee?

No. There is no hire fee for private hire or a reserved section. We take a deposit to hold the date, which comes off your final bill.

How many people can you hold?

Upstairs holds 70 standing and downstairs holds 80. Exclusive hire of both floors is 150. Smaller groups can book a table, a booth or a section.

Do you do drinks packages?

Yes. Pre-booked parties can choose a package with a set price per head. See the Drinks menu for details, or ask and we'll tailor one.

Can we eat?

We serve grazing nibbles upstairs and guests can order food to the table from Suvlaki next door. Non-alcoholic cocktails are on the menu for anyone not drinking.

What if numbers change?

Bookings of up to 20 need 24 hours' notice to cancel and larger groups need 72 hours. With less notice the deposit is kept. Keep us updated and we'll adjust your space where we can.

Is the venue accessible?

Our building is old and full of character, which means the toilets are downstairs and not wheelchair accessible. Let your team know in advance.
