Full Venue Hire at BIG EASY – Westfield Stratford

The Westfield Stratford outpost brings Big Easy’s American BBQ and live music format to East London’s most connected transport hub, adding something the Covent Garden original doesn’t have: a 150-seat terrace with a nine-metre outdoor bar stocked with over 500 spirits. For summer events and warm-weather corporate entertaining, the terrace is the centrepiece — outdoor dining at scale with a dedicated bar, adjacent to the Olympic Park. Full venue hire accommodates approximately 500 guests across two indoor floors and the expansive terrace. Seated dining serves 250 inside, with the terrace adding a further 150 covers. Semi-private areas handle groups of 50+ seated or 100 standing for events that want their own space without full exclusive hire.

The Terrace at Big Easy Westfield Stratford

The terrace is this location’s primary differentiator. A nine-metre bar serving 500+ spirits gives outdoor events a drinks offering that rivals the main venue, and the scale — 150 seated — means this isn’t a token balcony but a genuine outdoor event space. Summer parties, warm-weather client entertaining, and after-work socials gain an outdoor dimension that most East London venues can’t offer at this capacity.

Two Floors and the First-Floor Rum Bar

Inside, the venue follows Big Easy’s established format across two floors — the main restaurant with its American BBQ and seafood menu, live music stage, and the building’s industrial-influenced interiors. The first-floor rum bar adds a more intimate, cocktail-focused space that works for smaller groups or as an arrival point before guests move to the main event.

Events and Accessibility at Big Easy Westfield Stratford

Stratford’s transport convergence is hard to beat for East London events. Stratford International (for connections from Kent and beyond), the Underground, DLR, Overground, and Elizabeth Line all meet at the door. For corporate events drawing attendees from across London and the South East, this accessibility eliminates the transport objections that more central but less connected venues generate. Live music runs nightly, giving events guaranteed atmosphere. In-house catering covers the full Big Easy menu — BBQ, lobster, seafood, and bar food — with the same frozen cocktail machines and craft beer selection as the wider chain. The venue operates card and contactless payment only.
