A room that does the decorating for you
Exposed brick, timber floors and eight arched windows with city views. Panama gives your guests a sense of occasion the moment they walk through the doors.
Choose a long-table dinner, a roaming cocktail party or something in between. Our kitchen and bar team look after the food and drinks, and our venue manager looks after the rest.
Panama is available on limited dates for exclusive hire, subject to availability and a minimum food and beverage spend.
