Private Events at Urban Fireside

Host Your Event in a Converted Firehouse

Urban Fireside offers a striking backdrop for private events, blending industrial architecture with warm hospitality. Exposed brick, blackened steel, and concrete create a bold urban firehouse aesthetic, while cinematic evening lighting and open-kitchen fire photography set a dramatic, after-dark Toronto mood. This is a space designed for real-world gatherings, not virtual or casino-style experiences.

Industrial Character, Warm Hospitality

The restaurant's converted firehouse architecture provides a dramatic yet welcoming setting. Exposed brick walls and blackened steel beams create an industrial backdrop, while concrete floors and raw surfaces are softened by warm ivory accents and firelight. The open kitchen adds a dynamic, sensory element to events, allowing guests to see and hear the culinary team at work.

The space is designed to feel cinematic after dark, with dramatic overhead lighting creating pools of warm light against cool materials. Photography of open flames and glowing embers reinforces the firehouse theme throughout the room. The overall mood is sophisticated yet unpretentious, making it suitable for both formal corporate dinners and relaxed social celebrations.

The Private Dining Room

A dedicated space within the restaurant that can be reserved exclusively for your event. The room offers privacy while maintaining connection to the restaurant's energy, and it features the same industrial design language with warm accents. It is ideal for seated dinners, cocktail receptions, and corporate meetings.

Flexible seating arrangements allow the room to adapt to your event format. Round tables, long banquet tables, or cocktail-style setups are all available, and audio-visual equipment can be arranged upon request. Dedicated event staff and a bartender ensure that every detail is handled throughout your gathering.

The Card Room for Private Poker Events

Urban Fireside features a dedicated card room designed for offline poker, available for private events. The room is a physical space within the restaurant, not an online platform, and it offers a focused, intimate setting for card games. Its design uses dark denim tones to distinguish it from the main dining area.

Host a private poker night with professional-grade tables and a comfortable, smoke-free environment. Professional poker tables and quality chips are provided, and the room can be configured for tournament or cash game styles. Food and beverage service is available throughout the event.

The card room can be reserved as part of a larger private event or exclusively for a poker-focused gathering. Minimum spend requirements may apply, and event duration and guest count can be tailored. Contact our events team for availability and pricing.
