FAQ

GENERAL BOOKING INFORMATION

There's no charge for using the room if you meet the minimum spend on food and drinks and, if applicable, the minimum guest count. Room costs are based on food and beverage sales, not including taxes and gratuity. Final charges will include food and beverage sales plus 13% HST and an 18% gratuity. If you don't meet the minimum spend, the difference will be charged as a room rental fee. If the guest count isn't met, the shortfall will be added to your bill, even if the minimum spend is reached.
Bookings are first come, first served. Contact Maddison or the Events Team at 905-493-4031 ext 3 or via email at maddison@thebrockhouse.ca. We don’t hold rooms for inquiries. A contract and deposit are needed to secure your booking.
Yes, this option is available. You would be required to select Dinner Set Menu C at $95/person with a minimum of 20 guests for the Nash Room and 30 guests for the Kent Room 
Cocktail events can’t be booked during our Sunday Brunch or on a Friday or Saturday night before 7:30 PM.
Yes, we have parking on the north and south sides of our building. We recommend carpooling as spots may fill up with regular diners.

Absolutely, but note that while private, the room isn’t completely soundproof.

Nash Room | Has a glass door for complete privacy.

Kent Room | No door, but thick drapes can be closed for privacy and noise reduction.

Yes, we provide essential audio-visual equipment. Both private rooms have a 46" LCD TV with HDMI connections for laptops (Mac and Windows). A projector screen is available upon request, but you need to bring your own projector. 

We don't allow microphones, live music, karaoke, or loud music due to noise disturbances travelling throughout the restaurant

Yes, we are wheelchair accessible. Although both private rooms have three steps, we offer a portable ramp to help guests arrive and depart easily.

BILLING + CONTRACTS

To secure your event, a signed contract and a deposit are needed. The deposit, which is 25% of the minimum spend requirement, is processed when we receive the signed contract. If you cancel with less than 2 weeks’ notice, the deposit is forfeited. This deposit will be deducted from your final bill. On the event day, you can settle the payment with a major credit card, debit card, or cash. 
No, the credit card on the contract is only for the deposit and related policies, like last-minute cancellations. Please pay the remaining balance in person with your preferred method. We don’t accept cheques.

Yes, we can charge the card on the contract at the end of your event for a 4% service fee, but we need written consent before the event. Please co-ordinate with Maddison/Events team prior to event.

Yes, let us know before the event, and we’ll refund your deposit to your card once full payment is made.  
The deposit is refundable unless you cancel with less than 2 weeks’ notice (6 weeks for November and December). If you cancel within this period, the deposit is forfeited. Cancellations with less than 72 hours’ notice or no-shows will result in full payment based on the contract quote.
Send a written cancellation via email to maddison@thebrockhouse.ca. No exceptions.
Yes, an 18% gratuity is added for all private events or bookings of 10 or more guests. Feel free to leave an additional tip for exceptional service.
Notify us 72 hours in advance of any guest count changes. You’ll be billed for the guaranteed number or actual attendance, whichever is higher. For events with minimum guest capacities, you’ll be billed for the minimum requirement if your numbers fall short, even if the minimum spend is met.

While one bill is recommended for large groups, we can provide separate bills if needed. This takes longer, so please be patient. For brunch, bills will be provided by 3:30 PM to ensure departure by 4 PM. We do not offer separate billing for lunch & dinner buffets, or hors d’oeuvres events, but drinks can be billed separately. The organizer is responsible for meeting minimum spend and capacity requirements.

Please inform your guests about the selected party menu to avoid confusion. Including this information in your invitation is recommended for transparency. If guest numbers fall below the confirmed count, the organizer must pay for the remaining meals.

 DECOR, SET UP + FINE DETAILS

We offer personalized menus for each guest. Linen tablecloths and white linen napkins are available for an extra charge, added to your final bill. These items don’t count toward the minimum spending requirement. If you need designated seating, please bring your own place cards and seating plan.

Linens can be ordered through TBH at the following cost. Linen orders must be given a min. 2 weeks prior to event.

White or Black Linen Table Clothes - $10 each (roughly fits up to a table of 8)

White Linen Napkins - $0.20 cents each **Our black linen napkins are complimentary.

All linen must be purchased through The Brock House. This ensures we have the right amount on hand before the event, that it fits our tables properly, and meets our quality standards.
Limited decorations are welcomed. We ask that decorations are limited to table decorations. Suggestions for table decorations; floral arrangements, name cards, table numbers, pictures, candles, battery operated candles, runners and balloon bouquets. Please do not use candles with flames due to fire hazards.
Please avoid attaching anything to walls or windows, using confetti, or hanging items from light fixtures or fireplace mantels. No display walls, arches/balloon arches. Any damage to the property will result in loss of deposit.
Our staff can help set up table decorations. Any non-table decorations must be handled by you during your booking time. Please drop off table decorations earlier with setup instructions by coordinating with Maddison/Events Team.
Your booking time includes both setup and teardown. For example, if your event is from 11:30 AM to 3:30 PM, invite guests from 12 PM to 3 PM to allow 30 minutes before and after for setup and teardown. For brunch events, INQUIRE for more details.
Your booking time covers setup and teardown. We suggest keeping decorations simple to maximize your time with guests. We can set up minimal table decor before you arrive. Our rooms are already beautifully decorated, so only a few additions are needed. 

Please send invitations only after booking your event. For brunch events, inform guests that the buffet ends at 2:30 PM, so they should arrive at 1 PM. Do not list an earlier start time. Include details about the event's end time, cash bar, separate billing, gratuity, and pricing, if applicable, to keep guests informed.
