I need a restaurant or site to host 50 people for apps and drinks in Bryan/College station. Not too casual. Best if it had a private room or area. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Hank

We hosted a group about that size a couple years ago at Cafe Eccell and it was great. We were all seated though so not up and mingling if that makes a difference.

Any reasons on why Cafe Eccell is perfect for it?

The inside still feels like a Luby's. The ceilings are WAY to high, the layout is boxy, and outside of the bar, it isn't a cozy space. The food is good, but the ambiance is off. The old location was great. The new location is....a gutted Lubys with lipstick and a wig.

I prefer the new location. The old location was falling apart.

I couldn't disagree more that it feels like Lubys. My wife and I were there this week and actually had a conversation on how it's hard to believe it was a Lubys we'd come to after church on Sundays as kids.

But the reason I think it's the perfect space for what the OP asked has little to do with architecture. First, they have two dedicated spaces for events just like the one mentioned. Second, every event I've done there (5-7 of them) has been great. Third, Eccell has great drinks and appetizers. The two things the OP was looking to serve.

I would have put this in a PM, but I don't see that option with your user name. My admin sent info@eccellgroup.com a message asking for information on Wednesday. She still has not heard back. She followed up with a call and was told it would be a few days. The person would not give us the phone number for the event planner. We need to find a place and waiting a few days is unacceptable. At least have your people respond and let us know if it is available.

Very good to hear Aaron. I was alarmed and embarrassed at the notion we weren't prompt. Enthused to know you hung in there with us.

Please feel free to contact me directly with any questions or needs.

It doesn't feel like a Luby's at all. I haven't seen an oxygen tank or heard anyone slurping their food even once.
