Function Rooms
Private seated dinner service from 10 to 340 guests.

Our delightful private dining rooms will seat from 10 to 150 guests for lunch or dinner, or up to 200 guests for cocktails and hors d'oeuvres. Although the main dining room does not open until 11:00 AM, private receptions, collations, etc., can be accommodated as early as 9:00 AM. The entire restaurant may be reserved for morning use, or all day Sunday only, for up to 340 seated guests. It may also be available on Saturday, but only until 6:00 PM.

 
8 to 11 seated. The Baldwin Room is Beacon Grille's smallest private dining room. Its beautiful, solid granite-top table is ideal for 8 to 10 guests, but will accommodate as many as 11 in relative comfort. It is ideal for small, intimate gatherings, or round-table business dinners or luncheons.
 
 

 
Ideal for medium-sized groups. Allows the flexibility of large conference-style seating layout or smaller individual tables.
 
 
 

 
One of our larger rooms includes a direct entry/exit from the exterior.
 
 

 
Our larger Rumford Room features a built-in candlelit fireplace, contemporary chandeliers and a giant built in TV. Like the East Room, it seats 40 to 50 guests, but when combined with the Alcove, seats up to 100 and with the East Room to seat up to 150 guests.
 
 

 
The Rumford and East Rooms work very well together for larger events, especially where a separate cocktail reception is desired. See seating Options 28, 30, 32, 33, 34 and 40 for suggested seating arrangements with a separate reception area with a private entrance from the parking area if desired. This reception area also provides for a separate, head table area with plenty of room for musicians or DJ. See Option 40 for banquet seating of up to 96 guests without a breakout room.
 
 

 
 
These three private rooms combined nicely seat up to 146 guests. See options 34, and then 38 to 60, except Option 40, for plans. On Friday and Saturday nights, the Rumford Room and the Alcove are needed for ala carte seating. Larger groups are accommodated on those nights within the stunning three-story high Atrium, which is directly next door at 300 TradeCenter 128.
 
 

 
 
This three-story high Atrium is a truly stunning venue with broad views across teaming Interstate 95. This room offers the special attraction of an elevated speaker's or performer's platform, plus a wide range of table arrangements for banquets, cocktail receptions, political events, etc. See Options 72, 74 and 76 for banquet seating with bars showing suggested layouts for 88 to 152 guests.
 
 

 

We welcome family and business functions any Monday through Saturday, with arrangements described more fully below. Much larger function, exhibit, and display spaces are readily available in a number of other areas throughout the massive TradeCenter 128 complex including the large three-story atrium which seats 160 for dinner. To view our function information, please click here.

In addition, Beacon Grille works very closely with TradeCenter 128 Executive Suites to provide long or short-term office space in any needed size or configuration, as well as the latest in video conferencing and worldwide interconnective services. Full meal service is available within the Executive Suites' 30,000 SF facility directly above Beacon Grille.

Automobile access to Beacon Grille is especially easy, and free parking is abundant. The area is also directly serviced by MBTA Bus #134 from Wellington Circle via Medford Square, Winchester and Woburn Centers. For catering or function reservations, see the information below, or call 781-933-3333 to speak with the function coordinator. Reservations are currently being taken for all dates up to one year in advance.

 
 


Function Room Information

Private dining in the East Room, Rumford Room or the much smaller Baldwin Room means expertly prepared food and professional service in a private setting. This venue is ideal for catered business dinner meetings, private parties and special occasions. The Rumford Room includes a large 50" flat screen. Tour groups and other interstate busses can be accommodated at Beacon Grille with prior reservations and a credit card deposit. The Baldwin Room accommodates 10 for dinner at a magnificent round granite table.

 

For functions with full dinner service, the restaurant has a $45 per person average food and beverage minimum. A starter course plus a choice of either soup or salad, and a choice from pre-selected dinner entrees, plus coffee, tea, or soda, and a choice of any of our regular desserts can easily be accommodated within the minimum average.

For cocktails and hors d'oeuvres service only, see our basic hors d'oeuvres menu below. At least 30 guests are needed to reserve the East Room or the Rumford Room for cocktail receptions. A smaller number can usually be accommodated in the Alcove Room.

Alcoholic beverages are charged by consumption. Service can be from an open bar, cash bar, wine and beer only, or a combination of these. Massachusetts sales tax and an 18% gratuity are added, but there are typically no rental fees for any room.

If wine will be served with dinner, it may be pre-selected from either our regular Wine List or from our Reserve List. We will be happy to assist in selecting a by-the-glass or by-the-bottle red, and white. Arrangements for wine pairing and wine tasting dinners may also be made with our general manager or with one of our Certified Sommeliers. Public wine tasting dinners are scheduled on the second Tuesday of each month at 7:00 PM in the Rumford Room.

A non-refundable reservation deposit is required to book function rooms. Specific room assignments may be made at any time, but must always be subject to change up until the time of each event.

Weekend Events: Beacon Grille, from time to time, may be available for private parties on Sundays, even though the restaurant is regularly closed that day. There is a $5,000 food and beverage minimum (exclusive of meals tax and gratuity). The entire restaurant can also be available any weekday before 11:00 AM without extra charge for funeral collations, etc. Because of the high demand for ala carte use, the Rumford Room is generally not available for private use Friday or Saturday evenings. The East Room is available weekend nights, as is the entire atrium at 300 TradeCenter for dinners of at least 50 people when the East Room is not available, but early reservations are essential.

Deposit: A deposit is required in order to reserve a private dining room, and no reservation shall be considered confirmed until accepted in writing by an authorized representative of Beacon Grille. The deposit will be credited on the bill at the conclusion of the event. All final payments must be via cash or credit card at the time of the event. Click here for a printable Credit Card Authorization form, which may be used to submit your deposit electronically or by mail if all boxes are completed as shown.

Estimated Count: An estimated guest count is necessary in order to reserve space for any event. A final guest count is then required to be provided at least 72 hours before the date of the event. Billing will be based upon the final count or the actual number in attendance, whichever is greater.

Service Charges, Minimums and Taxes: At Beacon Grille there are no room charges for the use of our private rooms for strictly dining, or for social or personal events. Minimum food revenue requirements apply when booking a private function, as our dining room(s) are otherwise used for a la carte dining. Minimum revenue requirements apply to food and beverages combined, not including state tax or 18 percent gratuity. Beacon Grille accepts only cash and/or major credit cards for payment.

Cancellation Policy: If a Guest cancels a scheduled event, and so notifies Beacon Grille less than one month prior to the scheduled date, 50 percent of the deposit will be refunded. Cancellations within one week of the event will result in forfeiture of the entire deposit. Guest agrees, however, that cancellation or failure to appear for the scheduled event, without having provided Beacon Grille with at least 72 hours advance notice, will result in Guest's credit card being charged the entire estimated food (only) revenue for the event, based on the final guest count.

General: Homemade special occasion cakes and pastries may always be ordered through Beacon Grille, but cakes may also be brought in from any licensed bakery by an event sponsor. When served with any luncheon or dinner, Beacon Grille will provide the servers plus needed plates and flatware at no charge. Guest decorations are always subject to Beacon Grille approval. By law, alcoholic beverages may not be served before noon on Sundays, and may not be brought into or taken from the building by Guest or others in attendance at Guest's event. Irrespective of the amount of wine ordered, guests are never charged for unopened bottles. Beacon Grille fully adheres to city and state smoking regulations. Smoking is prohibited anywhere inside any public building in Massachusetts.

Flowers: Floral arrangements may always be purchased or otherwise brought in from any source of a guest's choosing. Beacon Grille, however, has used Corporate Daisy florists at 600 West Cummings Park, Woburn, MA 01801, and is pleased to recommend their work and quality. If any reader is interested in purchasing flowers from Corporate Daisy, please call "Jeannie" at 781-932-2929.
