Corporate and Private Dining

Private & Corporate Dining near the Business Design Centre

Just 150m from the Business Design Centre — a three minute walk from Angel station — Frederick’s is the natural home for exhibitor lunches and client dinners.

Our set lunch is £30 for two courses (Tuesday to Friday), and our private rooms handle anything from a board dinner to a 200-guest reception. The BDC hosts 130 events a year — from the London Art Fair and The Podcast Show to Mines & Money and Country Living — and we have fed its exhibitors, delegates and their clients for as long as the venue has run in its modern form. Here are the practical details event organisers ask for.
