Guests enter the arched doorway into the Essex private dining room and are immediately transported to coastal New England with accented walls of weathered cedar shingles, deep navy blue paint, and a wooden Dory boat suspended from the vaulted ceiling. For larger events of up to 60 guests, the Essex and a portion of the Riverwalk can be combined by simply opening the connecting French doors. Curtains close the archway entrance to offer additional privacy and soften the ambient noise.

The Outdoor Bar high tops and fire pit lounge couches are perfect for small, casual gatherings. The tables can be reserved either individually or collectively, and are a great option to enjoy an afternoon party or celebrate under the stars. Covered high tops tables are available with direct access to the outdoor bar itself, while the lounge tables can host cozy fire pit lit nights or casual standing parties. A combination of high tops and couches can also be reserved.

The large outdoor bar patio offers a variety of styles of seating whether it’s the high tops along the river or the cozy fire pit lounge couches.

While not private, we can cordon off tables grouped together towards the back of the dining space to create a partially private dining experience.
