Private dining or a full restaurant buyout? The right choice depends on the kind of evening you want to create. 🍷✨
A private dining room is ideal for intimate gatherings where conversation, a beautifully paced meal, and a more personal setting matter most.
A full restaurant buyout gives your group the entire space — offering more privacy, flexibility, room to mingle, and the freedom to shape the evening from welcome cocktails through dessert.
At Bistro 165 in downtown Brunswick, both approaches can work beautifully for rehearsal dinners, milestone birthdays, Bowdoin family gatherings, anniversary celebrations, corporate dinners, and other special occasions.
For out-of-town guests, OneSixtyFive The Inn on Park Row adds another advantage: guest rooms are just upstairs, making the entire celebration feel more relaxed and connected.
