Best Places in Soho for an Intimate Engagement Party

An engagement party should feel as joyful and personal as the proposal itself. At The Townhouse at 357 W. Broadway, we host celebrations that feel like the best kind of dinner party: lively, candlelit, and filled with great food, music, and conversation. Located in the heart of Soho, our three-floor venue offers the perfect blend of elegance and warmth for marking the start of your next chapter.

A Space Designed for Connection

For smaller gatherings, our upstairs salon is ideal for seated dinners of 12 to 30 guests. The space is filled with character, from vintage chandeliers to art-covered walls, creating a romantic atmosphere without the need for heavy décor. For larger cocktail-style events of up to 80 guests, the parlor floor and lounge can be combined to create a dynamic, free-flowing experience.

Our downstairs listening lounge is a favorite for after-dinner celebrations. With a built-in sound system, cozy seating, and space for dancing, it is the perfect spot to toast the couple well into the night.

Personalizing Your Engagement Party

We believe no two engagement parties should look the same. Our chef works with you to create a menu that reflects your tastes, whether that is a multi-course plated dinner, shared platters for a family-style feel, or passed hors d’oeuvres for a lively, mingling crowd. Our bar program can be customized with wine, champagne, or signature cocktails inspired by your story.

For a personal touch, we can arrange floral designs, photo backdrops, and even live music or a DJ to keep the celebration going. Whether you want a low-key gathering or a high-energy party, we make it happen.

Why The Townhouse Works for Engagements

Engagement parties benefit from spaces that feel intimate yet special. The Townhouse offers built-in ambiance, eliminating the need for heavy decorating. Our flexible floor plan allows you to create distinct moments, from heartfelt speeches upstairs to music and mingling downstairs.

The Soho Advantage

Soho’s central location makes it easy for guests to attend, whether they live in the city or are coming from out of town. The neighborhood is also full of beautiful streets for engagement photos and offers endless options for pre- or post-event exploring.
