As part of our HeyVenues Visits series, we recently stopped by Fazenda at 100 Bishopsgate to see the space for ourselves. Fazenda joined HeyVenues a couple of weeks ago, and we were keen to go along, get a feel for the venue and see exactly what they have to offer.
First impressions were great. The décor is stylish without trying too hard, and the lighting creates a really relaxed, welcoming atmosphere. The layout is very open, which makes the whole space feel lively and social rather than formal. It’s the kind of place where you can easily imagine a long dinner turning into a late evening with clients or colleagues.
What really stood out, though, was the food and the service. From the moment we arrived the team were fantastic, attentive without being over the top. Within seconds of walking in, the barman had appeared with a glass of water to welcome us, which immediately set the tone.
The dining concept is also something we loved. You choose your preferred cut of meat and it’s brought to the table on a skewer and carved right in front of you, a great bit of theatre that makes the experience feel a little different. Alongside that, guests can head to the buffet and choose from a huge selection of sides, which adds to the whole interactive feel of the meal.
From an events perspective, the space works really well. Fazenda offers two private dining rooms and a semi-private dining area, making it ideal for team dinners, client entertaining or celebratory meals. If you’re looking to go bigger, each floor can also be hired individually, which would make quite an impression for a larger event.
Overall, Fazenda is a great addition to the London dining scene, relaxed, impressive and very well suited to both social and corporate occasions.
