Star & Garter Is A Stellar Venue On The River Thames
Star & Garter is a sophisticated west-end style wine lounge and function room, that opened at the beginning of June 2008.
The impressive venue dates back to 18oo's and is a renowned local landmark along the bank of the River Thames. The building has undergone major renovation internally and externally, to restore its original features and make way for a wine bar for the new millennium.
Star & Garter features an innovative "Enomatic" wine dispense system that has been specialist-designed to keep reds and whites fresh for up to three weeks once opened. This enables the team to offer one of the most comprehensive lists of wines by-the-glass in the country, without compromise on quality.
Resident sommelier, Will Buckland has travelled to the world's top vineyards handpicking over 100 wines for their specialist cellar, although not all of his trips have been as far flung as one might imagine! Commenting on his selection of English wines Will said, "The South of England is producing some spectacular wines now- right up there with the best in the world".
To complement your choice of wine, Star & Garter also boasts a walk-in Cheese Room, which is temperature and humidity controlled. An extensive selection of English, artisan produced cheeses will be available, with fully trained staff on hand to offer advice if required.
In addition, the venue will offer delicious mezze plates and charcuterie boards with a mouth watering assortment of locally sourced produce for those with a bigger appetite.
One of the main architectural features of Star & Garter is its sweeping staircase which leads up to the Ballroom - one of two functions spaces available with a capacity for entertaining over 200 people. With its riverside location and balcony overlooking the river, the Star & Garter is the perfect venue to hold stylish wedding receptions, Christmas parties or corporate events.
Putney has long been a resting point on the River Thames for weary sailors - why not stop off for a relaxing glass of wine on the way home to ease the tensions of the day?
You can enjoy a fresh glass of wine with friends and colleagues, take your drinks outside and enjoy them by the River or reserve an area in the bar to enjoy the 'hot summer' nights in style.
