FAQ's

Please see below for the most frequently asked questions about our Function Room.

*Please remember by booking with us for your event or function, you are agreeing to all our terms and conditions on our website.

Do you have a Bar?

Yes, we do! Our fully stocked bar offers a variety of drinks for all ages. The room can be booked with or without bar service, depending on your preference. However, if you book the room with the bar, we kindly ask that you do not bring your own drinks. Any outside drinks, including those for children, may be subject to a corkage fee at the club’s discretion.

How many people does your Function Room hold?

We have 75 chairs and 20 square tables available in our function room, which can comfortably accommodate up to 90 guests. If you require additional space for your event, our event manager may be able to arrange access to our Private Members Lounge, located adjacent to the Function Room, for an additional cost. And no need to worry—the bar runs through both rooms!

What are your toilet facilities?

Our toilets are conveniently located on the main floor, near the entrance and function room. The Ladies' toilets include baby-changing facilities, while the Men's toilets feature two private cubicles.

Do you allow 18th Birthday Parties?

Yes, we do! There are a few additional conditions to ensure the event runs smoothly, and our event manager will work with you to make their big day extra special!

Do you accommodate Charity Events?

Most definitely! As a club, we are proud supporters of Bolton Hospice, Alzheimer's charities, and several other local causes. We allocate several dates throughout the year for charity events, and if availability allows, our event manager will work with you to help raise funds while ensuring everyone has a fantastic time!

Can we use your kitchen?

Our kitchen may be available for use; however, during the Cricket Season, availability is limited. If you require kitchen access for your event, our event manager can discuss the available options and pricing at the time of your booking.

What are your set-up and close-down requirements?

We kindly ask that you return the room as close to its original condition as possible. If you wish to decorate, only Blu Tack is permitted, as other adhesives may damage our paintwork. We also reserve the right to prohibit decorations that could cause damage to our premises. Before leaving, please ensure all tables and floors are free of rubbish and work with our team to keep the room clean. If needed, our event manager can discuss a bespoke package with you at the time of your booking.

Can we use the outside grounds for our event?

Access to the outside grounds can be quite limited. As a fully operational and professional Cricket Club, our players and members actively use the grounds throughout the Summer Cricket Season, while Horwich Hockey Club utilises them during the Winter Season. Due to this, outdoor space is rarely available for private events. Patio access may be granted at the discretion of our event manager, and we will confirm this at the time of booking. The field may also be available in limited circumstances at the discretion of our groundsman. We kindly ask that you respect our grounds and work closely with our team to ensure all guidelines are followed on the day of your event.

Great venue, manageress is excellent she made our evening run like clockwork. We hired the room for an 18th Birthday, she was very helpful and kept an eye on things with a understanding lite touch considering there was around 40 teenagers.

Certainly recommend and consider for future family events.
A great evening was had by all. A big thanks to all the staff.

**A Magical First Birthday Party at Our Local Cricket Club**

We recently celebrated our daughter’s first birthday at the local cricket club, Astley Bridge and it was truly a fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to ensure every detail was perfect.

The venue itself is beautifully maintained, with lush green grounds that provided a picturesque backdrop for our party. The indoor facilities were spacious and immaculately clean, offering a comfortable and safe environment for our little one and her guests.

What truly set this venue apart was the exceptional service. The staff was incredibly accommodating, attending to our every need with a smile. They helped us with the setup, ensuring everything was just right, and were on hand throughout the event to assist with anything we needed.

One of the highlights was the dedicated play space for the children. It was perfect for setting up our toys and games and provided hours of entertainment, allowing the adults to relax and enjoy the celebration.

Overall, Astley Bridge provided an unforgettable experience for our daughter’s first birthday. The combination of a stunning venue, top-notch service, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere made it the perfect place to celebrate this special milestone. We couldn’t have asked for a better day and highly recommend the club for any event or celebration! Thank you so much

Great size room for a small family get together and great host too, loved it and definitely recommended.

Had our Grandsons 4th birthday party in the function room today. Really smart and modern room. Good kitchen facilities. Bar serving drinks and bar snacks in the room too. Room was air conditioned which was a life saver on our day! Staff were really friendly, helpful and amenable. Plenty of parking space. Great party venue and highly recommended.
