Private Functions & Events

Planning something special?

From late October 2026, Life’s Too Short will be welcoming private functions and events at our new home at 42 Bridge Road, Richmond.

Whether it’s a birthday, celebration, corporate gathering, wine event or something completely your own, we’d love to help you create an occasion to remember—with great food, fabulous wine and the warm, personal hospitality Life’s Too Short is known for.

Our new venue will also be home to our bespoke micro-distillery, Everything But Gin, opening up even more possibilities for unique events and experiences.

For private function enquiries, please contact us at:

We’d love to start planning with you.

Stay tuned for more details about what’s coming next — we look forward to raising a glass with you again soon.
