Functions & Events
A Venue Like No Other for Your Special Event
Nestled in a historic 1857 sandstone building in Glebe’s Inner West, Beckett’s is renowned as a unique, elegant, and versatile venue, specialising in hosting functions, private dining, and bespoke events. We accommodate up to 150 guests, offering French-inspired menus that range from canapés and cocktails to curated food stations or full sit-down multi-course dinners.
Bespoke Venue
Tailored to your event
We offer intimate private spaces ideal for any occasion—whether it's a casual gathering in our playwright lounge, a formal dining in our private dining room, exclusive access to our private wine cellar, or even booking the entire venue for a special event.
FRENCH-INSPIRED MENU & EXTENDED DRINK LIST
FOOD & DRINKS OPTIONS
Chef Frederic Plat has crafted a fine dining menu that can be enjoyed in two ways: as individual portions or as a shared experience. With the individual set menu, guests can select one entrée, main, and dessert and create their own experience. Alternatively, everything can be served family-style, allowing guests to sample all the dishes from the set menu. A canapé menu is also available on request, perfect for those looking to host a standing cocktail-style event.
DIETARY REQUIREMENTS
We cater to all dietary requirements and can adapt our menus to ensure everyone enjoys Beckett’s dining experience. Simply let us know your preferences, and we’ll take care of the rest.
