About a month ago I hosted a baby shower for a friend at Obivia. Even though it was not my first choice it worked out perfectly- the lounge in the back is beautifully decorated with plush chairs, low antique tables and soft pink curtains. Perfect for a small intimate gathering of about 18 ladies and a few small children and enough space to move around and open gifts. Clare and Michael were so accommodating, they actually opened up early on a Saturday just for our event! The food was excellent- we ordered several selections from the hors d'oeuvres menu (chicken skewers, shrimp, tomato bruschetta, chips with guacamole, dipped strawberries mmm) and the presentation was amazing. They even let us bring in our own cupcakes and served them in a lovely display with decorations. Due to the nature of our event, we did not indulge in many cocktails although the ones we did order were fabulous (awesome bellini =0). The price was beyond reasonable for the quality of service and the fact that we practically had the whole place to ourselves. We had a lovely time and several of the guests commented on the decor and the ambience and said they definitely plan on coming again and hosting their events here.
Pros: Beautiful lounge, accommodating staff
