Really was one of the Best Parties Ever

Went out recently for our Christmas party to Bicester Heritage held by these guys, absolutely smashed it.. Fire dancers on stage, donut walls, the Dj pulled out all the bangers you'd want to hear on the dance floor, not to mention the staff were just great and really made us feel taken care of. It really was one of the best parties ever! One to remember!

Oh what a night!

We had our work Xmas party at Milton Keynes and had a fab evening! Our company had purchased the green wristbands which basically meant an open bar all night - what a result! We had wine on our table ready for us aswell so we were never without a drink. The entertainment was brilliant, in particular the man doing all the crazy balancing!

One thing I really want to highlight was that fact that that young lady came to our table and checked about dietary requirements - I always have to be the one who asks but this time it was the other way around and I immediately felt reassured that I was able to eat everything with no worries at all and that was a nice touch - and the food was YUM!

All in all, had a really great evening, and even had a whirl on the dodgems! I haven’t done that for years, I felt like I was a teenager again!

Thank you so much to all the staff, hope to be back next year, have a great Christmas all.

The Best Party Ever in Milton Keynes

We had our work Christmas at the Milton Keynes venue this year for the first time and had an amazing experience.

The all inclusive package was brilliant, we decided to go for the premium package and so happy we did so. The cocktails on tap were delicious and could be poured in seconds.

The food was surprisingly excellent, usually at these types of events the food is a let down but not this time.

Also the entertainment was fantastic, the dancers and acrobats really blew us away. In addition to that we had so much fun on the dodgems and the elevated dancefloor.

Can't wait to be coming back next year as I understand the themes of the event changes.

Fantastic evening in Newcastle

We had a fantastic evening at the life centre in Newcastle, food was great (especially the potato gratin, I could have eaten 3 of them 🙈) excellent selection of desserts, loved the crumble staion and the guy on pan & ice was great. Great entertainment, never seen anyone hula hoop like that before!! The dj was fantastic!! we were dancing until the lights came on!! Can't wait for next year 🥳

St Albans Best Parties Ever

We attended the St Albans Venue last week and had a great time! We did have a query with one of our dietary requirements however, the lady looking after our table was able to sort this quickly for us. Good selection of entertainment - our MD especially loved the dodgems - and the DJ played a good selection of songs that even had our Finance Director up dancing! Would definitely recommend, thank you again!

Best Christmas party ever...

Booked for 65 employees and everyone had the best night! honestly the best Christmas party we've ever had. The food was nice and served hot, no queues for the bar, DJ was great, acts/entertainment were spot on, really well organised event. The only things missing we thought was a photo booth or photographer. But they had everything else and more!

FALSE ADVERTISING

Bristol Paintworks !!!
Where do i start, when you first walk in there seems to be some quiet confusion from staff and customers none of my group were escorted to our table , i had to ask for wristbands from which our company paid over £60 pounds for each from which girl staff ran upstairs for to collect we then finally found our table then proceeded to the very very small bar which was packed. Service was ok except you couldn't order two beers the rule was only 1 drink at a time and with half pint bottles costing £7 even non alcoholic drinks were at this price which was extortionate for any venue and with there rule in place very crafty bit of business especially wristband 60 pounds purchase meaning , small bar one drink per purchase ie; half pint you wouldn't get your monies worth. Now thats the Bar scenario..
FOOD..
Staff very rude , just slamming your plate down in front of you the starter was ok just reminded me of a miniature cheese and onion quiche and then the main coarse, WoW what can i say it was just a chicken breast from iceland which was pumped full of water with a little bit of seasoning on top accompanied with a nice potato Dauphinoise with one carrot absolutely unbelievable, which was followed by a semi dessert which was a very small amount of churro's and chocolate brownies six each shared between 10, paintworks maths obviously not there strong point.
Entertainment..
Not great seen better at a school nativity honestly and if you are seated at the back like some people you would not see anything...
casino.
where was it... oh there it is a halfmoon table with some chips which was located on the very small dancefloor from which the bar was directly on causing complete chaos from dancers , ordering drinks and trying to play blackjack, absolutely mental.. there is so much more i like to inform you on but i just cant be bothered to waste anymore time on this very very poor venue so please anyone caring to read this stay away it is not worth the money... I would give Zero Stars....

Also I would like to add that a police report has been raised in conjunction with unacceptable violent behavior for which the security did not resolve and allowed the violent party in question to stay at the venue resulting in us leaving the event early.

I had a great night at best parties for my Xmas work night out. All the food was amazing and I couldn’t help but visit the doughnut wall more times than I would like to admit. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would 100% go again

What a great night in Newcastle

What a great night in Newcastle! Food was really tasty and entertainment was impressive. Only thing was disappointed there was no dodgems or anything of the sort. Nonetheless, had a fantastic night and will be back next year!

Huge let down

I’m not saying I didn’t have a decent time, but for the amount of money they charge and all the hype they create in their description of the event, the reality didn’t measure up at all. I could barely see what I was eating because the lights kept going on and off to the music. The food was nothing to write home about. For what I understand to be about £80 a head there were no drinks included. The bar was extortionately priced. The ‘world class’ entertainment was middling. If they had charged half the price I’d accept what we’d got, but even then you’d be better off just booking a nice restaurant meal somewhere then heading to a bar - which we did shortly after the meal. No chance of us sticking around for the “survivor’s breakfast”, which based on what I had already experienced, would also have been a let down.

Bicester Heritage, worst parties ever more like!

Music was way too loud so you had to shout to even speak to the person next to you, it wasn't even anything recognisable until much later.
The entertainment towards the end of the evening was good (greatest showman theme) but the food and service was definitely not worth what I was told by the boss it cost (food just forcefully shoved in front of you & smacked into my partner's hand at one point, almost knocking his drink over).
The food options on the little menu on the table was pretty much pointless as everyone was automatically given the same even when I did fill out the dietary requirements email that was sent to us all before the event, "your vegetarian, hears some chicken" it only took them until our entire table had eaten to find me something to eat!
Don't even get me Started on the dessert, it's a total joke which anyone who's actually been Will know & anyone going will find out!

Just received an email from trustpilot stating that best parties ever would like more information about my review, such as booking reference (I don't have one it was a work's party I was invited to) & email address or my review could be removed!
This is my honest review of the experience I had, I don't require a response & I think it's rather fishy trying to get reviews on a review site removed!

Best Parties Ever - South of England Showground

Was a brilliant night from start to finish. The staff couldn’t be more helpful if they tried, with that said should give a massive shout to Chris and Lottie who were just bloody amazing and nothing was to much of a hassle. They made the night even better.

Trojans Eastleigh 16th Dec 2023.

Trojans Eastleigh 16th Dec 2023.

Very over priced party!! Bottle of wine £28, small beer £7. Tap cocktail £10.50, shots £5.25.The food was basic and no choices. We had a party of 12 and dessert was pathetic, we got a small bucket with churros and brownies. The security team were very rude and challenging, my brother in law was taking his bottle of water home with him and the security man wanted to take it off him. He was looking for a fight, very rude and aggressive. We will not book with this company again and would not recommend it to anyone. Very disappointed having spent nearly £100 per person.

the venue it’s self was lovely and the starter was nice the chicken on one of the girls plates was undercooked. then the dessert came out i was in shock the desert platter was a few brownies and few churros for the whole day. poor considering your price. my partner also came with his company but wasn’t allowed in because he was in jeans. but there was so many people inside with jeans.
