I’ve attended 2 functions here. The big room is nice and usually set up very well for appropriate functions. Roomy dance floor and a decent size bar. The cathedral, barn — type ceiling adds a rustic, airy feel. The staff is wonderful, very friendly and helpful. Feels like it could use some updating to the main entrance, carpets and the restrooms, but overall a very serviceable spot for any event. Different size rooms for every size function i.e. small intimate baby showers to larger 200+ weddings.

I’ve attended different events at The Century House throughout the years and with each one I attend the serve and the upkeep of the building declines with each visit. Recently, I attended a surprise family function in the early afternoon hours. Once the guest of honor arrived, the buffet style food was brought out which we served ourselves and sat back down. You would think we were ready to eat? Wrong! Looking around at our place settings we all had a drinking glass and a coffee cup but no beverages(which the host wanted their guests to at least have water served with our meal). That wasn’t the case, the servers were so slow getting water for us which never came. we all purchased our beverages which would have been fine if beverages were to be served in the first place. A little while later about 2 hours in when the cake was served one of my family members asked a server for coffee(which was never offered at our table neither to the others) which we all were looking forward to having with our desserts. The server returned and to clear our spoons and coffee mugs which I mentioned to the server, excuse me but we’re waiting for our coffee. Her reply was, oh yeah, the coffee maker has been shut off. I looked at time and thinking to myself we were 2 hours into the party and still had 2 hours at the venue and not once was offered coffee. Onto the bathrooms and upkeep, the bathroom smelled as if the sewer were coming up through the pipes and the toilets were filthy, no toilet paper. I’ve worked in the food and hospitality industry for over 2 decades and this has to be the worst serve I’ve encounted. If you’re looking to host a function at the Century House, please rethink otherwise.

Went to century house to inquire about utilizing their location for my wedding reception. The lady who gave me the tour was extremely rude. When I asked if the contract she was attempting to force me to sign locks in the price, she stated«No and if that’s what you want you can go somewhere else». If you are considering this location I would recommend looking elsewhere.
