Named after the mythical island at the heart of the legend of King Arthur, The Avalon is a majestic public house and garden located in Clapham, South West London.

A truly unique wedding venue, it combines industrial Victorian elegance with luxury. Stand-out design features include large bay windows, a 15 metre walnut bar, a roaring fireplace and handcrafted wallpaper. The 1888 Room boasts a five-metre wide wrought iron mirror plus two giant male and female chandeliers created by award-winning designer Jericho Hands. Alternatively, head up-stairs to the stylish Blue Room, perfect for more intimate weddings.

The Avalon is blessed with three outside spaces, making it perfect for summer weddings too. Enjoy the front terrace, a private courtyard and a stunning secret garden (named as one of Time Out’s very best) – the ideal spot for guests to enjoy their welcome drink.

Facilities and capacity

The Avalon can be part or exclusively hired. The 1888 Room can hold 70 seated or 110 standing. The Blue Room can hold 20 seated, 25 standing. Alternatively, take over the entire venue for up to 250 people.

Services Offered

Using the best seasonal produce, The Avalon can create bespoke food and drink menus. Whether you'd like a Champagne and canapé reception, buffet-style sharing boards, a fish and chip supper or three-course wedding breakfast, they can do it all.

Their experienced wedding co-ordinator will be on hand and can help with all the finishing touches, from floristry to photography, entertainment and everything in between.

They have a state-of-the-art sound system, AV equipment, DJ facilities and ample space for dancing.

The Avalon is also just a two-minute walk away from Clapham Common, a beautiful alternative backdrop for wedding photos.
