Whether you're organising a birthday, team social, engagement celebration, club gathering or simply an excuse to get your favourite people together, finding the right venue can be harder than it sounds.
You want somewhere that feels special without being formal, offers great food and drinks, and doesn't require hiring an entire venue just to accommodate your group.
That's exactly why so many people choose Hang 10 Distillery in Warriewood for their group catch-ups.
Our relaxed distillery, brewery and bar is perfectly suited to groups of 10-25 people looking for a memorable experience without the stress of planning a large event.
Here are six reasons why Hang 10 Distillery is one of the best venues for group bookings on Sydney's Northern Beaches.
1. Enjoy Your Own Semi-Private Space
Not every gathering needs a private venue.
Our semi-private group bookings allow you to reserve your own dedicated area while still enjoying the atmosphere of the distillery around you.
It's the perfect middle ground between booking a table at a busy venue and hiring an entire function space.
Whether you're celebrating a milestone birthday, hosting work drinks or gathering your sports club together, you'll have a space that feels like your own while still enjoying the energy of the venue.

2. Award-Winning Drinks Made Right Here in Warriewood
One thing that makes Hang 10 truly unique is that everything starts on-site.
We handcraft our award-winning spirits at our Warriewood distillery and brew our own beers through Half-Pace Brewing Company.
From refreshing gin and tonics to handcrafted cocktails and locally brewed craft beer, your guests get to enjoy drinks they won't find anywhere else.
It's a genuine local experience and a great conversation starter for visitors who haven't been to a working distillery before.
3. Easy Food Options That Everyone Loves
Organising food for a group can quickly become complicated.
We've kept things simple.
Our menu includes fresh pizzas, grazing platters (available for pre-order), snacks and flexible catering options depending on your event.
Want to bring a birthday cake? No problem.
Need something a little bigger? We can help organise additional catering options too.
The goal is simple: less planning for you and more time enjoying the celebration.

4. A Venue Full of Character
Let's be honest. Nobody gets excited about another generic function room.
Hang 10 Distillery offers something a little different.
Located just minutes from Warriewood Beach, our space combines an industrial warehouse setting with warm lighting, surf-inspired interiors, handcrafted drinks and a relaxed coastal atmosphere.
It's casual enough for after-work drinks and stylish enough for birthdays, engagement celebrations and special occasions.
