We recently hosted our company party here and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The venue with a lovely terrace was perfect for a summer celebration. The bartenders were polite, friendly, and provided fantastic customer service. The food, catered by their partner caterers, was absolutely lovely – our team is still talking about it! Everything ran smoothly from start to finish, and it truly made for a memorable evening. Highly recommend for any event.

We recently held our wedding celebration at Lock 91 and couldn't have been happier with our choice. From the very beginning, the staff was incredibly accommodating and helpful, making the planning process stress-free. They even gave us a DJ recommendation, who ended up being a perfect fit and provided an amazing service that kept everyone dancing. The venue itself was a fantastic setting for our celebration. The unique atmosphere and great service made for an unforgettable night, and all of our guests had a wonderful time. We would recommend Lock 91 to anyone looking for a special place to host a party or celebration. Thank you to the entire team for making our event so memorable!

Me and my partner chose the top room of lock91 as our evening venue for our weeding and we absolutely loved it! It was the perfect venue for us and our 70 guests to have a lovely evening and celebrate our marriage. We worked with Jacob to get everything organised, having 4 really useful meetings to go through everything we wanted on the day. Jacob also recommended Rebecca to decorate the room and Gavin O'Callaghan to DJ the night and both did such good jobs too! Gavin had the dance floor full until the end of the night and kept the energy levels high the whole time. Even the coordination with the caterers was excellent and everything went to plan the whole evening. We couldn’t have been more happy and all our guests loved it, so a big thank you to everyone at lock91 for making our day so special.
