The Rise of Event Rentals and Private Functions
It’s undeniable that we humans thrive on social connection. These days, throwing a celebration is more meaningful than ever. Even though the Covid chaos feels long gone, the aftermath still lingers. Think about all those missed chances to celebrate birthdays, anniversaries, engagements, you name it. We're appreciating those perfect spots to gather and have a good time.
Whether blowing out the candles on a big birthday or toasting a milestone wedding anniversary, finding that dream venue is key. But those luxurious spaces to spend treasured time with friends and family are sought after. So where to cherish those special moments and make memories that last?
A luxurious space in a hospitality venue offers an opportunity. Away from the hectic main building of the pub or restaurant, it’ll create a space to host private parties.

A trendy hangout, people celebrating, and good times can only mean one thing… a lot of photos. As happy guests upload to social media, you’ll receive tags and hashtags. There you have it, improved social media presence.
In a competitive industry, your private rental facility becomes your niche. With drink supplies and kitchen facilities on site, you’re pretty much all setup. You can curate specialist buffet services and further bespoke packages for clients. You just need that space. One that’ll capture the imagination and capitalise on the momentum of the event rental trend.
How Oak Gazebos Help Pubs, Bars, and Restaurants
Our oak venue gazebos have become popular among wedding venues for good reason. The majestic design has prompted happy couples to choose the setting to exchange vows, one of life's most special moments. But the grandeur of a venue gazebo isn't exclusive to moments of matrimony. These elegant permanent outdoor structures are versatile. So what sets our oak venue gazebos apart?
Aesthetic Appeal
First and foremost, let's talk about the looks. Oak venue gazebos radiate elegance. With each section made from high-grade oak, you'll add a touch of sophistication to your establishment. The triangular prism-shaped structure will become a source of intrigue, attracting visitors from far and wide. If your venue has a temporary outdoor structure such as a tent, then an oak gazebo will be an instant visual upgrade to your business.
Durability
See, we build oak gazebos to last. By using high-grade construction grade oak, not to mention by its very nature it's a durable timber, these structures withstand the elements and stand the test of time. Unlike temporary event tents, oak gazebos are a permanent fixture. You can rely on them for years to come, making sure you can get bookings in the diary. An oak venue gazebo becomes the perfect backdrop for weddings, birthday parties, and corporate functions alike. Best of all, their timeless design means they won't go out of style.
Bespoke Gazebos for Pubs and Restaurants
Custom-made to fit any space. The covered area will allow your customers to enjoy al-fresco dining come rain or shine. It's also a cost-effective way to increase the capacity. Not only does an oak venue gazebo need little to no maintenance, but it is also more affordable than extending the main building using brickwork.
Our online designer allows you to change the size of the gazebo. So however small the space, or forever big for that matter, we can make a venue gazebo for you. You can start from as small as 3m x 3m. Whether you want a cosy seating area or a larger space with a dancefloor, we've got you.
Even if you don't decide to use the space for events booking, you'll have upgraded the capacity, looks and reputation of your business. One reason for the expected rise in hospitality footfall is a summer of sport. No event captures the imagination of a nation more than football and with Euro 2024 kicking off on 14th June, chances are you'll need the space. It's always wise to have extra capacity on hand, so even if you miss the boat this year, consider preparations for further down the line.
Oak Gazebo vs Oak Venue Gazebo for Pubs and Restaurants
Oak venue gazebos have a distinct look. The triangular prism has a gable roof that slopes towards the floor, offering supreme protection. But, for a more traditional design, pubs and restaurants can look to our standard gazebos.
Even with standard sizes, we make everything bespoke. Furthermore, you can choose shapes ranging from the more traditional square-shaped to the more elaborate L-shaped. The L-shaped gazebo can be helpful to slot into the corner of courtyards if you're short on space.
Whatever the size area you have available to you, there are options to make sure you make the most of your space and increase the capacity of your venue.
How To Improve the Outdoor Space of a Pub
An oak venue gazebo will increase the appeal of any outdoor space at a pub or a restaurant. However, there are small but effective tricks once you've assembled the kit to make the most of the space. Two features that every pub and restaurant benefits from are lighting and heaters. Lighting will not only make the space usable at night but also create a relaxing atmosphere for visitors to enjoy dining and drinks after dark.
While the venue gazebo offers protection from the elements, added patio heaters will make customers use the space outside of summer. Of course, there are health and safety considerations and we urge anyone to receive the appropriate advice. Nonetheless, these two inclusions can make sure you have extended usage of the venue gazebo.
For pubs, an extra bar space can help you in peak summer when the crowds arrive. Likewise, big screens to broadcast major sporting events will help attract customers. Some venues might consider a small stage to allow for outdoor live music. Whatever your vision, chat with us and we can cater the space to your needs.
Conclusion
Oak venue gazebos are good for business. They offer an increase in capacity for your pub or restaurant, allowing visitors to enjoy the outdoors all while providing shelter from sun and rain. The striking design will put your pub or restaurant on the map. In an increasingly competitive industry, it can help your business stand out from the crowd.
And that's just the basics. It can also provide an opportunity for event hosting and private functions. Oak venue gazebos are a smart solution. They're low maintenance and without the need for intrusive developments that disrupt the main building.
