What people say about us
“The food, service, attention to detail was amazing"
We held our Christmas Party at Bistro Live in the upstairs mezzanine and had this to ourselves with our own bar. The food, service, attention to detail was amazing and could not fault it. Highly recommend

“New Year was brilliant - but they offer so much more - just ask !!”
The second event was a private do to celebrate students leaving for Uni - we took over the venue and were treated exactly the same as any other evening - food brilliant, service brilliant and entertainment all through the night was the same standard as always -
If you are considering a party with a difference then Bistro Live is worth talking to - they took the whole thing out of my hands and all I did was turn up with 140 others and enjoy the evening as much as they did - and yes, without hesitation, I have booked for this year too!!
