Private Dining
Whilst we are a fully functioning continental style café during the daytime, we transform ourselves into a friendly and relaxing, but vibrant evening venue with the flexibility to create a layout to suit your particular requirements for 20 to 200 people. The entire cafe can be hired exclusively for birthday parties, wedding receptions or even a conference or similar event.
We divide our private dining into two broad categories: Afternoon and early evening (until 7pm) where we serve afternoon teas, cream teas or high teas or Evening (from 7pm until late, for a minimum of 40 guests) where we serve a buffet, carvery or 3 course meal. For menus and prices, please download our Private Dining brochure (pdf), or email info@thelakesidecafe.co.uk or telephone 0113 265 7338.
Christmas Parties
It's never to early to think of organising your office Christmas party and once it's booked you can get on with the rest of the year knowing it's all taken care of. This Christmas you can hire the Lakeside exclusively for your own private party. We can cater for up to 80 people from 7pm to midnight or alternatively we will be holding several Christmas Party Nights in tables of 8 with a disco. Visit our News & What's On page later in the year for menus, dates and price details. With Private Parties we can be extremely flexible. You may wish to have your own live music so that you, your friends and colleagues can enjoy an evening of fine food and dancing in a perfect festive setting.
