The Anthologist

Thanks to all the team at the anthologist for making our wedding celebration such a memorable occasion. The staff was absolutely brilliant. Special thanks to Aldo for being there at all times for everything we needed and to the rest of the team for making such a special occasion as our wedding so magical. We will definitely keep this place under consideration for future events. Love to all the anthologist team, we hope to see you all again very soon, and again thank you so much!

Great venue, decor and staff. We visited here for an event. It was well organised, the staff were helpful and there was so many fabulous finishing touches to the interior that gave it a really unique feel.

My wife and I booked an area in the Anthologist for drinks after our civil ceremony and wedding day lunch and it was nothing short of PERFECT! We organised the reservation through Caroline, who was helpful, friendly, accommodating and enthusiastic about making it a special day for us. The staff and service were attentive, charming and conversational and the canapes/food are highly recommended. Thank you to everyone at The Anthologist for helping to create a memorable day for us.

A good venue, with good service and music. I didn't try the food but have been told it was nice. Has some outdoor seating out the front also.

We cannot thank Will and the team enough for giving us the most perfectly stress free Wedding. From the planning through to the day it was all so much fun! My husband and I (still getting used to that term.. hehe) live in Australia so when we decided to get married in London we knew we were up for a challenge to plan a wedding literally from the other side of the world. However, when I came across Drake and Morgans venues and started to email with Will, we thought it was all to good to be true! I was quickly proven wrong when we skyped with Will and realised we were in the best hands possible. Will is an absolute dream to work with, and his team reflects his values to ensure we had the best day possible. Nothing seemed too much for them, Wills endless list of contacts and suppliers is incredible, he helped us to arrange the DJ, hotels (with great discounts), flowers, hairdresser, make-up and much more! They worked closely and managed all external suppliers I had sourced and projected managed the Wedding to the very end!! The venue we chose, The Anthologist, looked amazing and the team had set everything up just the way we had wanted! Actually it was even better than we had expected! The food was divine, and the drinks were flowing just as we wished. The team on the night were fantastic and so professional, nothing was too much for them. The feedback we had had from our guests has been wonderful and has kept the wedding buzz alight for weeks after. Our experience with Will and the team was stress free the whole way, which made the planning fun!!! I cannot recommend Drake and Morgan as your choice of venue and wedding planners highly enough, the value for money is second to none and you and your guests will have the most magical day! Thank you so much to Will and his team, you have made our wedding more than we could have hoped for xx

We honestly cannot speak highly enough of the venue and staff, it was the perfect venue for our wedding day and evening. Having reviewed a dozen venues in London, stately homes, private members clubs etc.... we came across the Drake & Morgan venues (of which there are a few!) and were shown around by Will Breteau (Events Manager for Drake & Morgan). All the venues varied in layout and size but each and every one had the same unique modern, contemporary, relaxed style which we absolutely loved. We selected The Anthologist on first viewing because of the layout and location. It is situated on Gresham Street which at the weekend feels like a private road in the heart of London! The Anthologist has a very light, relaxed feel, and the open plan layout allows a seamless transition from pre-drinks to daytime wedding breakfast to evening party. The food is to a high standard and also very reasonable in terms of pricing and we have since had many guests comment on the food throughout the day. The food tasting was great, the chef and his team were extremely accommodating and offered great suggestions for alternate options and dietary requirements. The staff on the day were fantastic, very friendly and attentive and made the whole day run very smoothly. The team were headed up by Will Breteau and his assistants Ava and Louise - these guys, from start to finish, made what can be a very stressful exercise seem nothing but fun. They orchestrated everything for us, contacts with DJ, table linens, bands, flowers.... Everything. This just leaves you to enjoy yourself!! Will sets the bar for events planning, he had absolutely every base covered and was always available to answer any queries we had by email. If you are looking for a wedding venue in the city, look no further than than the Drake & Morgan venues.
