Going Away Party in The Speakeasy

March 14, 2008

All of our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves.  We had a farewell party for two colleagues that were leaving Columbia University.  The location of the Speakeasy (Gin Mill) was great as it is only a few blocks from the subway.  The staff was friendly and attentive.  Although the food was only bar food, everyone raved at how great the sliders, wings and shrimp shumai tasted.  The day of the event, we had one guest tell us that they are kosher and that she would not be able to have anything on the buffet.  I called, was advised to speak to the manager when we arrived, the manager gave her the bar menu and she selected from those options.  Having the private room with private bathrooms was really a bonus so that our guests didn’t have to wade through the bar crowd and we were able to turn down the music for speeches.
Thanks again.  We will definitely plan on having future events with you.
