We recently held our wedding reception at the Blacksmith Bar in Richmond, and we cannot recommend this venue enough! From the moment we started planning, the experience was seamless, professional, and so enjoyable—thanks to the incredible event sales manager, Shae. Shae went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect. The Blacksmith Bar itself is stunning and is a perfect entry way into the upstairs private event space. Its cozy yet upscale ambiance is perfect for gatherings of all sizes. The food and drinks were exceptional, with so many compliments. The bar staff Kate and Brody were so fun and great with our guests. The private bathroom access and photo booth were a highlight. If you're looking for a private event space that combines excellent service, a beautiful atmosphere, and a dedicated team, the Blacksmith Bar is the perfect choice.

I didn’t try the food but this place was on my list of places to visit while in the area and I must say it exceeded my expectations. They take the time to make sure your cocktail is top notch and the bartenders are extremely friendly. Loved this place and will def come back! I highly recommend.

We held our 50th birthday here. The venue was perfect for a crowd of 75 people. From the first time we made contact with the venue, Shae was always very communicative and helpful. The staff on the night were also awesome. They were friendly & professional in serving food and drink. As well, their communication through the night was just right, making sure we had a relaxed and fun-filled night. Without being over-bearing. The built-in photobooth is also an added bonus. We highly recommend Blacksmith for your function.

I came to The Blacksmith Bar on a Saturday evening for a birthday party. The upstairs function room is spacious and suitable for parties and other events, plenty of room for dancing and an area for sitting as well. The food served was really tasty, and the bartenders were friendly. Thank you to The Blacksmith for a good time!

We celebrated our Wedding, after being Married on a cruise in December, here on Saturday night (4th May) with family and friends. It was a fantastic night and exactly what we wanted. The process of booking the venue, choosing the platters and drinks for our tab was made easy thanx to Shae from Pratt Hospitality Group (who manages the venue bookings). Brilliant communication and checking in to ensure we got everything completed on time. The staff running the event and working the bar on the night were fantastic, friendly and efficient. The food was amazing!! Everyone raved about how delicious everything was, plenty of choices for our gluten free and vegetarian guests. The atmosphere and vibe was perfect for our event, photos playing on the tv brought back many happy memories and we had our playlist on to dance to. Everyone loved the photobooth, we brought our own props to represent our Cruise wedding and it was fun to go through all the photos when we received them the next day via email. Guests have spoken about how great the night was and the venue was perfect and would consider it for any upcoming events they plan. Highly recommend The Blacksmith Bar for any special event 🥰
