971 Kingston Rd · Toronto's east end

A small room does December well

Hold your holiday party at Lighthouse 971, at 971 Kingston Road in the Upper Beaches — an office or corporate party, a family gathering, or a friends' reunion. Three ways to take the room, set menus built with you beforehand, and a minimum food and drink spend with no room hire fee on top of it. A bit of planning advice, offered plainly: parties of 30 or fewer usually book 4 to 6 weeks out for December, so it is worth checking your date early — especially for a Friday or Saturday night. That is advice, not a deadline. Send the date you have in mind and we will tell you straight away what is open. Full detail on every space lives on private events.

Set menus

  • Set a menu with us beforehand. For a holiday group it gets everyone fed at the same time, and you know the shape of the bill before the night. We build it from the dishes our kitchen already does well.
  • Or order off the main menu. Smaller groups often prefer it. See the food menu and drinks for what is on.
  • Feeding a group at your place instead? See catering for packages, trays, pickup and delivery.

How holding a date works

  1. 1. Send the form below, or call

    Date and rough numbers are enough to start. Parties of 30 or fewer usually book 4 to 6 weeks out for December, so earlier is easier — but ask, and we will tell you what is open.

  2. 2. We come back with what it takes to hold it

    A minimum food and drink spend for your date and time slot. There is no room hire fee on top of it.

  3. 3. A deposit holds larger bookings

    On larger bookings a deposit holds the date, and it comes off the final bill. Talk to us as early as you can if plans change.

  4. 4. Tell us the details at booking

    Allergies and dietary requirements, a bar cap, whether you need the room to yourselves — built in from the start.

Questions

What does a holiday party cost?

A minimum food and drink spend for your date and time slot. There is no room hire fee on top of it — you are paying for what your guests eat and drink.

How far ahead should I book for December?

For December, parties of 30 or fewer usually book 4 to 6 weeks out. Earlier is easier, especially for Friday and Saturday nights — send the date you have in mind and we will tell you straight away what is open.

Do you take a deposit?

A deposit holds the date on larger bookings and comes off the final bill. Talk to us as early as you can if plans change.

What about allergies and dietary requirements?

Tell us when you book rather than on the night and we will build it in. Gluten free, vegetarian and vegan are all straightforward for us.

Booking for eight or fewer? That is a table, not a party — book a table. For birthdays, showers, anniversaries, retirements, reunions, cocktail parties and other social gatherings outside December, see private events.
