Private hire
A room behind the room.
A private room behind the bar, with your own bartender for the evening. Curtained off, candlelit, and entirely yours.
The room
The bar, all to yourselves.
Behind a curtain at the back of the den is a room most guests never see. Take it for an evening and the bar comes with it: a bartender of your own, a list built around your taste, and the velvet, brass and candlelight all to yourselves.
We keep it deliberately small. It also doubles as private karaoke, done our way: your own machine, your own bartender and a heavy curtain between your song choices and the rest of the room. Made for hen dos, birthdays and send-offs.

What you should know
A private space behind the main bar, curtained off from the rest of the den and dressed in the same velvet and curiosities. For an evening, the room and its bartender are yours.
Your own bartender for the evening, a run of cocktails built around your taste, karaoke if you want it, and the run of the room. We can set a tab or simply pour until you say when.
Yes. The Secret Room doubles as Bath's most discreet karaoke room: your own machine, your own bartender, and a curtain between you and everyone who'd judge your song choices.
Birthdays, hen dos, hen parties and small celebrations. It suits groups who want the den to themselves rather than a corner of it.
Tell us the evening and the occasion and we'll arrange the rest. Email booking@opiumbars.co.uk or call 01225 332321, or use the enquiry button.
