Livery Hall
The Livery Hall is one of the finest grand rooms anywhere in London. The vast ceiling is adorned with scenes from Shakespeare’s plays ‘The Tempest’ and ‘Midsummer Night’s Dream’ and around the walls we display some of our finest silver. Marble-columned, galleried, gilded and hung with royal portraits, this is where Her Majesty The Queen and other heads of state have dined. It is large and versatile enough to accommodate almost any event you have in mind.

Drawing Room
The Drawing Room is an elegant setting for champagne receptions. The room is hung with delicate Victorian chandeliers and retains its original pale green and cream colour scheme of the 1860s. It is also a good setting for presentations with sculpture busts of HM The Queen and HRH The Prince of Wales, both members of the Drapers’ Company, lending it appropriate formality.

The Court Room
The Court Room is a perfect size for breakfasts, informal lunches and side meetings at conferences. And as it directly adjoins the Livery Hall, it is also much in demand for dancing, for which we have a special stage and floor. Louis XIV tapestries, 18th century chandeliers and portraits of The Duke of Wellington and Lord Nelson lend gravitas to this important room where the Master and Assistants meet to direct the running of the Drapers’ Company and award grants.
