Rental Information

The use of our private event spaces does not require a room rental fee. Instead, there are food and beverage minimum purchase requirements for each space. This is the minimum a group must spend on their menu, prior to tax and gratuity, to hold their wedding in one of our spaces. Any food, beverages, or other items purchased through Big Ditch Brewing Company will be applied to this minimum. Should the minimum not be reached during your event, a room fee will be added to the final bill to fulfill the minimum. Events that exceed the standard rental times may require additional fees or increased food & beverage minimums. To learn more about availability, pricing and packages, please contact us!

Food & Beverage

Our private events team will work closely with you to create a custom food and beverage package that fits your celebration. We offer a variety of food stations, hand passed appetizers, and buffet dinner options.  Please inquire about sample menus and ideas.  Menu items are subject to availability and seasonality. Beverages available include our selection of house-made hand-crafted beers, as well as wine, spirits, ciders and seltzers.

Cakes & Desserts

We work exclusively with Village Bake Shoppe (Lewiston, NY) to provide cakes and desserts. If you use Village Bake Shoppe for your cake, there will not be additional fees beyond the cost of the cake. If you have a bakery that you would prefer to use, you may do so. Any desserts or cakes brought in must be from a commercially licensed bakery and will be subject to a plating fee of $4 per person. At the end of your event, cakes or desserts that have not been cut or served to the group may be taken with you.
