The Private
Dining Room
Balthazar is situated in the heart of Covent Garden on the
corner of Russell and Wellington Streets, a moment's walk from
The Royal Opera House.
Our private dining room is situated on the first floor above
the restaurant, accessible either through the main doors or via
a private entrance. The room has its own bar and lounge, and
accommodates up to 60 guests seated for breakfast, lunch or
dinner, and up to 80 standing for receptions and events.
Guests can experience the same exceptional service, delicious
food and ambient style of Balthazar in a more intimate setting.
Antique timber floorboards, vintage wall sconces and an
original pewter bar top create an exclusive environment which,
alongside our specially crafted menus, will ensure the perfect
setting for your event.
