Le Gothique

Royal Victoria Patriotic Building, John Archer Way, London, SW18 3SX -

Up to
250 guests
Internal Catering
allowed

Le Gothique on Wandsworth Common was London’s first genuine gastropub when it opened in 1987. The restaurant, bar and gardens are located within the glorious Royal Victoria Patriotic Building.

The much over used term “Hidden Gem” really is appropriate. The “secret garden” situated internally within the building is most certainly London’s best al freco dining experience.

The glorious Grade II* listed Royal Victoria Patriotic Building is home to London’s most unusual bar and restaurant. The gothic bar, secret cloistered garden and restaurant sit within this magnificent former orphanage and war time home to M.I.5 & M.I.6

That rare option of free off-street parking completes a very impressive package for both private and corporate clients. Held within the same family ownership for the past 25 years a strong and regular clientele have kept this most secret of venues close to their chest.

Whether you are looking for a romantic table for two, planning a birthday celebration, a memorable and affordable location for your wedding or just fancy a pint….. this is THE place to seek out and find.

All of our offers are for Exclusive Hire of the venue, only, and there is no hire fee applied, simply a price per guest fee and anything extra you spend on food and drink.

Le Gothique, and the experience it provided to us on our wedding day can be summed up in one word... it was "magical". When we were looking for a venue for our wedding reception we wanted something a bit different from the norm, once we set eyes on the building that houses Le Gothique and its gothic style decor we were instantly sold, no other venue we looked at even came close, and being a stones throw from were we live was an added bonus. We didn't even know the building (the Royal Victoria Patriotic building) that housed Le Gothique even existed until we stumbled on it whilst doing our online searches. Booking Le Gothique for our chosen date also allowed us to choose from either having our wedding reception within the internal restaurant area, or, the outside courtyard double-marque covered area... obviously we chose the courtyard (with one eye on the weather reports as our wedding date approached). Luckily we had a day with good weather when our day arrived. Once we started dealing with Andrew he was always courteous and answered all our questions and queries on the numerous occasions we interacted with him. On the evening that we came for the "tastings" it was difficult to choose between the dishes as they were all tasty, but, we did eventually settle on the duck pate, lamb and raspberry mascarpone as the main three courses. We were more than pleased that alongside our chosen three course meal for our guests that Le Gothique were happy to accommodate the Greek starters (we supplied), it's safe to say everyone ate well on the day and probably ran out of space to even have some of our tasty wedding cake! Andrew and all the staff at Le Gothique made sure our day went without a hitch and ran as smoothly as possible and we can't thank them enough for that and they appeared to work seamlessly well with our flower and wedding cake arrangers. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend Le Gothique, especially for anyone else looking for a place that has a special feel to it to have a memorable wedding reception. Andy & Rowena
