Room Hire Information
 
 
♦ Catering companies can cook or warm up on site. They will however need to bring along their own pots and pans etc.
 
♦ The kitchen is to be left in the same condition as it was found. The kitchen will be checked at the end of the function.
 
♦ Any setting up and dismantling of Mandaps, extra staging & decorations etc are to be done within the allocated time booked.
 
♦ Soft drink can be brought in at no extra charge. Glasses are not provided for this, it is up to you to provide disposable cups or hire glasses from Devonshire Place or use an outside supplier
 
♦ At the end of the allocated Room Hire time – all drinks, food and decorations are to be removed from the premises.
 
♦ The rear entrances to the Oliver Dining Room and the kitchen are to be kept closed at all times. Failure to comply with this will result in a £50 fine for each time the doors have been kept open.
 
♦ If dry ice or any kind of marriage fire is to be used, the Manager, must be advised in advance. Failure to do so will activate the alarms, which will incur a charge from the fire service, which will be passed on to the contractual client.
 
♦ After 21:30 all catering and sound equipment will be required to exit the building via college walk, out of respect for our neighbours.
 
♦ A decibel limiter is situated in the Oliver Dining Room. This is set so the maximum noise level at our nearest neighbour is just within the legal limit. Its operation will be explained by the Duty Manager, but please be assured that the noise levels within the dining room will be such that the entertainment is acceptable to both the musicians and the audience. In the event that the power circuit cuts off due to excessive noise, the Duty Manager will reinstate the power on a maximum of 6 occasions. Following the 7th cut off, the power will not be reinstated.

♦ Advance notice is required if the Catering company wish to use the fryers, they are required to bring their own oil and drain it after use. This is to be taken away with them once they leave.

♦ You are required to bring your own refuse sacks for disposing of rubbish. This can be done using the skips at the top of the car park.
 
♦ Confetti can be used on site.
 
♦ Decorations can be put up, however nothing is to be stuck to the walls.
