It's all about the location

Finding the perfect party venue hire all starts with choosing the right location. You might want to choose a family-friendly pub in the heart of the city. Alternatively, you may want somewhere a little more out in the sticks. Luckily, you'll find our fabulous Belhaven pubs dotted around everywhere, from the cobbled streets of Edinburgh's Old Town to the rugged coastline of Moray. Want somewhere with a little touch of class and elegance? No problem! Happy to keep things cool and casual? Say no more! With so many pubs across Scotland, each with unique charm and personality, you're bound to find somewhere that suits the vibe of your event.  

Keep in mind that many of our warm and welcoming Belhaven pubs also function as hotels, so if you're expecting guests from far-flung locations, they can retire to soft sheets and the promise of a hearty pub breakfast once the confetti has settled.

Celebratory tipples all round

When it comes to special occasions, it's all about keeping the drinks flowing. From delicious welcome drinks to flutes of fizz, our bars have it all, including a range of exceptional Belhaven beers, such as award-winning Belhaven Black.  

And don't worry, we've got all the designated drivers and teetotallers covered too, with plenty of low and no alcohol sips that taste just as good as their classic counterparts. Even if you'd prefer to stick with your go-to cup of tea, coffee or hot chocolate while everyone else sips their pints and glasses of wine, that's fine with us! Each and every party goer deserves to feel like the guest of honour.

Feding your guests

Keeping your guests well fed and watered should always be a top priority. Thankfully, that'll be no problem when you choose Belhaven for party venue hire. Our marvellous menu is a sight to behold, with delicious pub classics, seasonal specials and tasty nibbles aplenty. Plus, you can even arrange for a special platter of party nibbles to be served, so your guests can help themselves as they please. And don't worry, we can cater to all your dietary requirements, so if you're expecting veggie, vegan or gluten-free guests, you can rest assured they won't have to fend for themselves.
