I hosted an award ceremony there yesterday. A lovely venue with friendly staff. The food was excellent. Caitlin was absolutely superb, and so good at what she does. She was so organised, and nothing was too much trouble for her……she was a pleasure to work with.

Another blood donation visit. Really speedy this time. Comfortable and pleasant surroundings.
Original review
Visited here to donate blood. Not something that you can do every day, but only when the NHS team are there! Didn't see much of the building or facility itself.
Great events venue, beautiful big room and attentive staff, used for a graduation and the afternoon tea was fantastic. Recommended.
Lovely building, cold though as needed coat on.
Hard for me to rate as I was only in there for about 20 minutes, but it was a nice place to get married even with covid restrictions.
Beautiful building. Very elegant decor. Absolutely lovely people on hand, ready to help. I cannot fault the service we received from the registrars & assistants at my son's wedding service. Beautiful surroundings, warm, friendly staff.. much recommended
Clean. Spacious. Vegan food was cooked well but a slice of roasted aubergine and mixed green beans was on the small side.
Great show and I will go again.
Tough call, but went 4 stars as we went out to enjoy ourselves and we did. A group of friends attended the 80s themed Tropicana Nights, well disco, for want of a better word. They had a simple set up, two bars, large capacity toilets and everyone who went just went to dance and enjoy themselves. There were plenty of attendees, but in pre-pandemic times there were probably more and it quitened down once the real clubs opened I think. It also snowed that night. However, fun was had and we danced until our feet ached.
Work training conference, was a beautiful building with lovely historic decor. The team that provided lunch and drinks were amazing and so helpful for the 2 days
Did a vintage kilo haul here
Our daughter and son in law were married here in the ballroom, and held their wedding breakfast and evening celebration here on Saturday. We cannot thank the staff enough for making their day so special. From the first meeting to discuss their requirements, to the actuall day of the wedding, the staff were professional and efficient and friendly. The Athenaeum is a beautiful building and the ballroom looked stunning. Here in Bury St. Edmund's we are so lucky to have this wonderful building available.Once again many thanks. Ann & Paul.
Thank you again to the Athenaeum, this time for hosting our 1920s joint 30th birthday party in April 2018! It’s such a fab venue. A very efficient, organised and friendly events team, who always throw a good party! 🎉
We had an amazing evening :) Emma & Rory xx
Packed during the holidays. Tons of small vendors and festive music
