Event Details

Sizzling sausages and other char-grilled delights are on the menu combined with the opportunity for Chinwaggers, the Digital Mission alumni and Bootlaw regulars to gather, mingle, chat and sup a cold beverage. Let's face it, we don't need much of an excuse and it will be the end of Summer.

The Driver 2nd Floor

The Chinwag Team have joined forces with the dynamic Bootlaw duo, Barry Vitou & Danvers Baillieu along with a little help from Kingston Smith and Great British Chefs to organise a Late Summer BBQ at The Driver, in Kings Cross, a chic boozer with an all-important roof terrace and BBQ, just round the corner from King's Cross station (the nice bit).

The event will run the event across two floors of the venue, the second floor and roof terrace. The BBQ will be sizzling away on the roof terrace, an area towering over the London skyline with comfortable seating and cosy nooks for networking chats.

The Driver Roof

A floor or so down, the drinks will be flowing in the contemporary bar where you can relax with a chilled beverage in this funky lounge bar complete with vibrant comfy sofas.

On the menu there will be burgers and sausages a-plenty (and of course, vegetarian alternatives will be provided) with grilled veg, potato and mixed leaf salads for the more healthier of you.  Also included with your ticket will be 2 drinks (your choice of a bottle of beer or wine, or for the non-drinkers, soft drinks).
