We offer an array of settings including the Verena Holmes building, Augustine House, and St Martin’s Priory, which all offer different backdrops for any special occasion.

Our campus is incredibly versatile, in that we can provide a suitable space for almost any event.

Banquets and dinners

Our dedicated team is able to cater for small intimate dinners and large banquets in many of our venues including Augustine House, St Martin's Priory, and the Verena Holmes building.

Augustine House has a large flexible space offering an ideal central city location. Guests are welcomed with a drinks reception in the atrium, followed by a three course sit down dinner in Augustine Hall. Augustine House can seat up to 180 guests and is perfect for an awards evening.

For a smaller affair, the Verena Holmes building may be a more ideal location. With views of the Cathedral, the impressive third floor open area can host banquets or award celebrations of up to 60 guests.

St Martin’s Priory is hidden away from Canterbury’s bustle, yet only a stone’s throw away from the city centre.

The picturesque venue includes the Grade II listed building which can be hired for an evening event. The venue also includes a beautiful 2.5 acre tiered garden, which is the perfect backdrop for a marquee event, including wedding receptions and private summer parties of up to 150 guests.

Located mere metres from St Martin's Church, our St Martin's Priory has proven popular to continue celebrations after a wedding or christening.

The Catering team offers seasonal menus and can create a bespoke menu for your event, which can be tailored to your specific requirements.

The team can provide a drinks reception upon arrival with a selection of skilfully made canapés as an additional option. With an extensive range of wines and alcoholic beverages available, we cater for any individual drinks requirements as part of your event.

With a number of years’ experience, our Catering team is fully equipped to deliver an excellent service to you. They endeavour to understand your needs in their entirety and offer a friendly, seamless, and unique event.
