Music

We are happy to host live music and discos but these are only permitted in the downstairs bar area not in the Willow Room. Music can be played in the Willow Room from a phone/tablet via our speaker. We love a party but we do have some neighbours and all music must end by 11:30pm. The sound level is dictated by our noise limiter and must be adhered to.

End of the night

We are licenced until 12:30am on a Friday and Saturday with last orders at the bar at 12am and we will ask you to leave by 1am at the latest. On a Sunday this reverts to 10:30pm with last orders at 10pm and guests leave by 11pm.

Decoration

We are happy for you to decorate the Willow Room and downstairs bar area adding your personal touches and will be pleased to discuss timings for this with you. Please note that confetti is not permitted. At The Queen’s Head you can be assured of the warmest welcome and we kindly ask you to respect our premises, the surrounding area and our team and we hope everyone has a wonderful experience whatever you are celebrating.

Additional Terms and Conditions

Children welcome until closing time with any private party booking, as long as they are well behaved and supervised at all times. On Sundays, the Willow Room is only available for hire after 5pm.
