The Montague on the Gardens Beach Bar - A summer party venue with a unique twist

The award-winning Beach Bar at The Montague on the Gardens is an unforgettable summer party venue that you and your guests will remember. They will welcome you with plenty of fun and surprises. Complete with real sand, a beach-hut style thatched roof, delicious cocktails, palm trees and a backdrop of a beautiful beach, you'll feel like you're basking in the Bahamas rather than in the heart of central London. Pose with our inhouse Jet Ski or for the ultimate selfie jump into our photo booth to create lasting memories of your experience. 

Voted 'Best Summer Party Venue' at The London Venue Awards 

To get you in the summertime spirit, their Chef serves a delicious range of BBQ options including meat, fish and vegetarian dishes followed by a tasty line-up of tempting desserts including assorted ice creams in cones. Cocktails are served in coconuts on arrival, alongside a superb selection of wine, beers and spirits.
