Set within Dublin’s historic Mansion House, The Round Room is one of the city’s most distinctive event spaces. Originally built in 1821, the venue has played a part in many significant moments in Irish history and today combines its architectural character with modern production, lighting and audiovisual capability.
With its dramatic circular layout and adaptable event space, The Round Room is particularly well suited to large-scale corporate events, gala dinners, awards, launches, conferences and festive celebrations.
The Round Room works especially well for events where the food, service and production need to operate as one coordinated experience.
The venue regularly accommodates gala dinners, awards ceremonies, conferences, product launches, corporate celebrations, Christmas events and premium hospitality, generally for approximately 250 to 500 guests depending on the event format.
With Taste has worked in partnership with The Round Room for more than 20 years, giving our team an exceptional understanding of how to deliver food and hospitality successfully within the venue.
Our catering can be tailored around the style and running order of each event. This can include arrival breakfasts, conference refreshments and working lunches, canapé and drinks receptions, premium buffets, multi-course seated dinners, sharing-style dining, dessert and petit four service, late-night food and full bar hospitality.
For large gala dinners, our culinary and service teams carefully coordinate kitchen production, table service, speeches, awards and entertainment so that each course works naturally within the wider event programme.
For conferences and daytime events, menus can be designed around shorter service windows, efficient delegate flow and practical breakout timings without compromising the quality of the food.
Every menu can be developed to reflect the occasion, season and guest profile, with dietary requirements incorporated from the outset.
Our long-standing experience at The Round Room means we understand the venue operationally as well as creatively. We work closely with the venue and production teams on event timings, room layouts, service routes, menu design and staffing so that the catering supports the overall event rather than operating separately from it.
From a formal black-tie dinner to a high-energy product launch or large Christmas celebration, With Taste provides the culinary, operational and front-of-house experience required to deliver at scale.
