Christmas Party Venues in Chippendale

What to Know Before Booking Christmas Party Venues

Teams working near Central station can walk to a Chippendale Christmas party in a few minutes. Budget is the clearest divider: Rooftop @ The Old Clare Hotel starts from $8,000 minimum spend and The Private Kitchen from $2,000 minimum spend, while the two pubs quote on your date and numbers.

A department that wants to sit and talk suits a different room from a whole office that wants to dance, and the suburb has both.

Which Chippendale room fits the work party:

Client-friendly rooftop: the Old Clare's poolside terrace on Kensington Street, for 100 standing with cabanas and city views
Long-table team dinner: up to 64 staff sit down at The Private Kitchen, the Old Rum Store's third floor, to a menu from its resident chef
Upstairs pub bar: Marmalade Bar @ The Rose Hotel at 52-54 Cleveland Street, for up to 120 seated or standing
A bigger, casual crowd: The Den at The Chippo Hotel on Abercrombie Street takes 180 standing
Drinks for a small team: The Chippo's Sports Bar holds 40 seated or 60 standing

Corporate bookings at The Rose go through its functions manager rather than the table booking system, so allow for that when pinning down a December date.

Marmalade Bar has TV and AV plus its own audio control for the thank-you speech and a slideshow
The Private Kitchen comes with AV screens, a PA and Wi-Fi, and the room is soundproofed
The Old Clare rooftop can be set theatre-style for 50 before the drinks begin
The Den at The Chippo seats 80 for a sit-down meal

Dietary lists, access and BYO

Mixed dietary lists: the Old Clare covers halal, kosher, extensive vegan, vegetarian and gluten-free menus
Plant-based by default: The Chippo's bar carries cruelty-free cocktails and mocktails for anyone skipping alcohol
Wheelchair access: The Private Kitchen and the Old Clare rooftop are both wheelchair accessible
Stretching the budget: The Private Kitchen charges no corkage if you bring your own drinks
