Venue Testimonials
We just want to say that we had the most PERFECT, wonderful, seamless and enjoyable day!! We never ever expected it to go the way it went - and it's all down to you guys at The Fable. The service was just incredible and the food was so tasty (our guests would not stop talking about the food!!)
Francesca M. ·
The day went perfectly and was exactly what we wanted. The food was great and we have to say that the staff were brilliant- everything was so organised and it ran like clockwork. A huge number of guests told us they couldn't believe how good the venue was and how attentive the staff were, which is really great.
Gemma F. ·
The wedding was top! Staff lovely and quick to serve, and lovely cocktails! They know what they're doing and work hard. The food we had was really nice, I really liked the chocolate caramel tart. Excellent space for a wedding thanks to the 3 floors they have and a lovely bright space too.
