About Semaphore Hotel
The Semaphore Hotel stands at 17 Semaphore Road, in the middle of the main street and close to the beach. Inside there is a front bar, a gaming room, a bistro dining area, a café and a large beer garden. Private functions are held in an enclosed outdoor area behind the hotel. It combines clean, modern finishes with plenty of greenery, and it has a bar of its own for the group. The space seats around 60 guests for a meal or holds about 100 for a standing event. Heating and air conditioning are built in, so it stays comfortable in both the cooler months and the height of summer. Catering comes from the hotel kitchen, which serves classic pub dishes, and the functions team puts together a package to suit each booking rather than working from a fixed menu. Ask about dietary needs when you enquire. At the end of the year the hotel runs festive set menus for groups of eight or more, served at decorated tables in the beer garden or the bistro.
