How it works.
What to expect, start to finish.
The private dining room seats 24 at one long table beneath the old beams, with a fire in winter and the garden doors open in summer. Our chef writes a menu for your evening, the wine list is ours and the room is yours from six until late. A venue conversation covers guest count, dates, accessibility, weather plans and supplier arrangements. Capacity, availability, permits, inclusions and contract terms are confirmed in writing before you sign.

The candlelit long-table dinner
We build a reception around proportion and texture: a linen swatch, a charger, low florals and a lighting test. BBJ La Tavola’s rental categories make the tablescape conversation specific without implying supplier arrangements.
- Guest count, table geometry and accessible circulation
- Tabletop preview and written rental inclusions
- Candle permissions, lighting and strike arrangements
Manufacturer and product names belong to their owners and link to official information. No affiliation or authorized-provider status is implied.
Good to know.
Is there a minimum spend?

Yes, and our pastry kitchen can also make one for you.
Questions worth bringing.
- What should I understand about the process and inclusions for private dinners & milestones?
- How will guest capacity, accessibility, supplier access and a weather backup fit our event?
- Which hire hours, catering arrangements, cancellation terms and additional charges are in the venue agreement?
