Private Event

Request to host a full venue event at Civil Pour

Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.

For parties larger than 40 guests, a full venue rental would be required, and a 2-week notice is preferred. This allows us to post and promote our closing on social media, and staff appropriately.


When the venue is reserved for a private event, the following guidelines will apply:


• A master tab that meets the minimum spend must be opened for all guests


• Gratuity of 20% will be added to the master tab, to include any items sold by us on your tab, including outside catering we arrange.


• Civil Pour can arrange your catering for you, a portion of which can be included in your master tab spend requirements. Ask us for details


• The client may bring in their own outside catering with advance notice, but this will not count towards any minimum spend at Civil Pour. Guests must provide their own serving ware and utensils for outside catering, and clean up for the outside items. If any outside catering is taken away, guests should also provide those to-go containers.


• The venue must be reserved for a minimum of 3 hours. The minimum spend (with or without your own provided outside catering) for a full venue rental is $1,200 plus 20% gratuity. If we arrange the outside catering for you, this will be added to your master tab and a portion may count toward your minimum spend. Each additional hour adds a $400 minimum spend requirement (e.g. a 4-hour rental requires $1,600 minimum spend).


• If a full venue rental occurs, it must begin at 6pm (or later) to utilize our 3-hour minimum. If it begins earlier, a longer reservation (or greater minimum spend) is required.


• All full venue rentals require a signed Private Party Contract, as well as 50% deposit in advance

If items are paid for at the time of purchase, beer or wine may leave the premises in approved, sealed legal containers. The venue and its employees have the right to refuse service of alcoholic beverages to any patron or guest who by his or her behavior or appearance is believed to be incapable of tolerating further alcohol consumption. We will act in accordance with Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission standards to preserve our license to serve and sell beer and wine.
