Option #1:
Station House
Price: $250-$2,000

Okay, we did say these suggestions are for small get-togethers. And while downtown Station House is known for hosting extravagant weddings, there are ample options and space for modest gatherings, too!
Station House is a co-working space with three floors of event space, three large conference rooms for meetings, and a gorgeous rooftop patio for showers and networking events.
Even though this building has been around since 1911, its modern meets industrial aesthetic is perfect for photos.
And prices start as low as $250! Here’s their event packet with more information.
Option #2:
The Breeze Bungalow
Price: $100/hour
Best For Hosting: Birthdays, Showers, Small Networking Events, Small Dinners
The Breeze Bungalow is owned by a cute, friendly, remote working couple that loves to travel.
Our colorful bungalow is a favorite for photoshoots, but it’s even better for hosting small events.
It’s a stress-free solution for bridal or baby showers because you’ll have a ready-made (i.e., clean) space. All you have to do is decorate!
You can also use the kitchen for cooking small dinners, prepping appetizers, or mixing cocktails!

You can get a monthly membership for your personal needs or rent one of their conference rooms by the hour for your small business (or individual) needs.
We love the Room of Requirement. Even if you don’t need to hide Ravenclaw’s diadem, you can use this cozy space for brainstorming sessions or filming opportunities (I mean, look at that backdrop!).
Option #4:
Grand Central Brewhouse
Price: N/A
Best For Hosting: Birthdays, Networking events, Bachelor/Bachelorette parties
Just because you want a small venue in St. Pete doesn’t mean it can’t be fancy!
