Knights of Columbus

Great venue, Joe Marks and his team could not be nicer and more accommodating!

Our service group has its bi-​monthly meetings at this Knights of Columbia facility. It’s a large venue with a number of rooms of various sizes. On the upper level is a large room that can be divided into smaller rooms and includes a bar area. On that level there is also room with a conference table that that can be used as a small meeting room. Downstairs seems more casual with another bar and I believe another large «party» room. I was at a birthday celebration in the downstairs area but it was so long ago I don’t remember much about it (hmmm, could also be the alcohol that was consumed). The décor looks a little outdated, and the food at our service meetings is very blah, seems to be mostly frozen food heated up. I’m pretty sure the «fried shrimp» are SeaPak, for example. But the food for special events might be much better and I’m not sure if you can bring in catered food. There is plenty of parking right around the building in a private lot and it’s just a short walk from the Forest Glen metro. There are entrances in the front for the upper level and around back for the lower level so it’s handicapped accessible, but you might want to confirm that with them. One reason for the third star is that the staff is very nice and professional. This venue is not like having a special event at the Building Museum, but it might work for a birthday or anniversary party.
