Philadelphia Bars With Private Rooms Must-Haves

Organizing an event can be tricky, but with careful planning and the right tools, it can be a breeze. Consider your event must-haves and venue features you consider non-negotiables to make an informed choice.

What's the size of the space? Once you've determined how many guests you're inviting, ensure you have enough room for everyone to mingle and move around. A small space in a bar will only crowd everyone, but if it's too large, it may seem a bit impersonal.

What do the reviews say? We always advise our renters to check the reviews of our listings before they sign on the dotted line. Check what other patrons have to say about the service before finalizing your decision.

Is the theme to your liking? Some bars in Philly give off a biker vibe, while others have a winter wonderland-like ambiance. Check the theme of the bar before you make a reservation so your party aligns with the ambiance.

Pros and Cons of Events at Philadelphia Bars With Private Rooms

With so many bars for private events and corporate functions in Philadelphia, you might experience venue search fatigue. To avoid this, check the pros and cons of hosting your event in a private room of a Philly bar and decide what works best for you.

Advantages

• A private room in a bar allows you complete privacy as you work the floor and entertain your guests. You can choose between bars in Old City or Midtown Village, and rest assured that everyone will have a great time.

• Hosting your event in a private setting, away from the noise and large crowds, means you can have quality time with friends or family.

• Most of the bar venues in Philadelphia are centrally located, within a short distance of public transit options, so you know your guests will be fine when they travel home after your event.

Disadvantages

• Many bars can't accommodate large groups. You may have to consider a smaller guest list when you book a private room in a bar.

• Bars are usually quite noisy, and rightfully so! There's music blasting from strategically placed speakers. While this is great for a night out, you may not have one-on-one peaceful conversations with your guests.

• If you're selecting a busy weekend or holiday, you may not get a reservation for a private dining room in time. It's best to book in advance to get the bar of your choice for your party.

Planning Your Event in a Bar With Private Rooms

Planning an event can be a lot of fun, but it also requires hard work. If you're unsure, you could hire an event planner to take care of everything for you. But if you want to do it yourself, don't worry; we created a simple guide to help you get started.

Check The Privacy – Ask questions while you walk through the venue. Check whether the room you're booking is completely private or semi-private. These things will make all the difference in service and noise levels on the day of.

Plan the Budget – Every successful party needs a budget, no matter how small or large it may be. But remember that you won't have fun if you're spending over and above your means. Set a realistic budget and stick to it.

Check the Room Capacity – What's the total capacity of the private area in the bar? Will a single room be enough, or do you have to book the entire bar? You'll want to ensure there's enough room for all your expected guests.

Plan for Decor and Entertainment – Check with the venue host if it's all right to get your own entertainers and decorators. Some bars have their own entertainment and decor services, and don't allow outside vendors.

How to Save Money on Renting a Bar With a Private Room in Philadelphia

Renting a private room in a bar in Philly can get expensive pretty quickly if you don't plan well. We can help you track your expenses so you end up saving money instead of blowing it all up.

Can you book your party during off-peak times?

If you book your bar event during the Christmas holidays or New Year's, you might have to pay much higher rental rates. If possible, try to book your gathering at off-peak times to save money.

Can you limit the guest list?

A smaller guest list means a smaller venue. If you have a large guest list, you may have to book the entire bar and not just a private dining room, which could turn out to be more expensive.

Which amenities are included in the rent?

While you're finalizing the bar venues in Philly, check which amenities and services are included with the rent. Do you have to pay extra corkage charges for the alcohol? How about additional money for using liquor glasses?
