Today, nestled behind this early 1900's storefront, (we left the outside just the way we found it), you'll find Orlando's most unique event space imaginable. Some are calling it "The Hidden Hanger" and others, "The Speakeasy". We just call it 1010 WEST. Step through the old metal gates and you'll discover the rustic and industrial, yet warm environment of a space revitalized from a turn of the century airplane hangar. Speakeasies may no longer be illegal, but their hard-to-find entrances gives a sense of exhilaration when walking down a dimly lit alleyway and passing through nondescript gates into a subterranean world of tinkling glasses and spirited history of our hidden hangar.

Orlando's small venue landscape offers two primary capacity ranges. Medium-sized venues accommodating 51–150 guests start from $4,907, making them ideal if you're planning an intimate celebration that won't feel cramped.

BYOB catering policies vary significantly across Orlando's small venues, and it's essential to ask directly during your venue tour. Some venues allow outside caterers but require them to meet food safety licensing and may charge a kitchen-use or service fee. Others impose minimum spend requirements on their preferred catering partners, which can make outside catering less cost-effective.
Given Orlando's heat and humidity, venues with strong kitchen facilities and climate-controlled prep space are more accommodating to independent caterers. When vetting venues in neighborhoods like Winter Park or Lake Nona, inquire about:
- Outside catering fees or kitchen charges
- Minimum beverage or food spend (if applicable)
- Kitchen access and equipment availability
- Liability insurance requirements for outside vendors
Always request the venue's catering policy in writing before signing a contract.
Policies vary widely depending on the venue. Many small venues offer flexible catering options, allowing you to bring an outside caterer or your own alcohol (BYOB), while others require you to use their preferred vendors or in-house catering.
Here's what to clarify when you're comparing small venues:
- Ask about BYOB policies—some venues permit outside alcohol with a corkage fee, while others prohibit it entirely
- Inquire whether you can hire your own caterer or if the venue requires their preferred partner
- Understand any minimum spend requirements, which typically range from $2,000–$8,000, according to the Zola Wedding Cost Index across small venues on the market
- Check if catering minimums are separate from or included in the venue rental fee
Small venues tend to be more flexible than large ones since they have fewer vendors to manage. However, some smaller spaces—especially restaurants or bars—may have stricter policies to protect their service standards. Always request these details in writing before booking to avoid surprises closer to your date.
