Portsmouth Gas Light Co was exceptionally easy to work with. The food, drinks and service were all high quality and event planning was made much easier by their complete and detailed event package. The staff went above and beyond to make our event happen smoothly
Cant say enough good things about Michelle and the crew at the Gas light. The attention to detail and planning let us enjoy our daughter's sweet sixteen party without any worries! The space is perfect for any private event you may have. We will always book with Michelle first if we need another event space.
PGL and its staff made our Women's Network Event a success! The food was very yummy. The whoopie pies were a great hit!! I would do another event here without question.
We visited three different venues to plan our alumni event for 60 in April 2024. Gaslight offered everything we were looking for…a cozy, classy space, with beautiful finishes, fresh, delicious food and drinks at a fair price. No question that we chose the right venue. Michelle, our event coordinator, was organized and a great communicator who went above and beyond to ensure our event was a success. Thank you. We will definitely return!
Perfect space for our wedding reception of 50 people. Very easy to plan as just picked items for a buffet and folks served themselves. Everyone loved the food. Large bar in the middle of the room is really fun, and cocktails were great. Small dance floor is set aside a bit so allowed guests who wanted to stay sitting and talking at the tables while strobe lights and party music played in the dance space. Parking is easy in the next door Hanover St parking garage. We also enjoyed a few of us being able to stay on at the public nightclub and then 1AM pizza downstairs to complete a fully epic day!
My husband and I hosted our rehearsal dinner at the Portsmouth Gas Light. From planning to the night of our event, we had a wonderful experience. Space: The space blew our guests away - they had all been to the Portsmouth Gas Light before but never realized the space existed! The exposed brick, raised ceiling and big bar will take your breath away. Service: Michelle and her team were amazing. Our guests always had a drink in their hand and our food station was always full! Food: If you want the best pizza of your life, head to the Portsmouth Gas Light. Our menu featured meatballs, arancini, pulled pork sliders, Ceasar salad, rotating pizzas and apple crisp. Every time someone took a bite of their meal all we heard was, "THIS IS AMAZING." Looking for your next event location? I highly recommend the Portsmouth Gas Light! We are looking forward to our next time back!
We held our wedding welcome party on the third floor event space at Gas Light. Michelle & her team were absolutely awesome to work with. Michelle was very professional and helpful as we planned our event. We had well over 100 guests coming to town for our wedding and Gas Light was the perfect location to host our welcome party in a private venue. The space was perfect and the food and drinks were top notch. Highly recommend renting this space for your next event!
We hosted our son and daughter in laws rehearsal dinner February 17, 2023 for 60 plus people. The staff did a wonderful job and there was plenty of food.
Michelle and the staff at Portsmouth Gas Light were great! Very accommodating and the food was delicious. I certainly would hold another event at Portsmouth Gas Light! Thank you all!
I planned my high school reunion from afar, and Michelle made everything so easy! She had thought of everything and the venue looked great when I arrived early to do some last minute setup. A last minute issue arose when I didn't have the correct adapter for the slideshow and Michelle did everything she could to make it work. (I got is working and all was well, we just needed to get creative). My classmates had a great time at the event and they all stayed until last call. Being able to go from the nightclub to the patio was a big hit, and attendees could be found everywhere. I would use the Portsmouth Gaslight again for a future event. Everything went smoothly and I was able to enjoy the night with my classmates. Thank you Michelle!
They were great...staff, service, space...we loved it!
We held a rehearsal dinner at Gaslight for 175 people. Michelle was amazing to work with. She helped us plan the event and made sure everything ran smoothly that night. The pizza was delicious and the food and drink was plentiful. Atmosphere was lots of fun and our guests had a great time!
We hosted a welcome party for 100 people at the Portsmouth Gas Light to kick off the weekend for our son's wedding. We worked with Michelle on planning the event and she and her team were amazing. Michelle went above and beyond to make the night special for our family and friends. The pizza and slider stations were delicious and exactly what we wanted for our casual event. The location in Downtown Portsmouth is perfect and just a short walk from all the downtown hotels. The atmosphere of the room is warm and bright and easily accommodated our large group. I would absolutely encourage anyone to hold their important event at the Portsmouth Gas Light!
The whole event was amazing! All of the staff were super helpful and friendly! Michelle (the events coordinator) aided us through the whole planning process and made sure that everything went down smoothly on the day of the wedding reception. We couldn't be happier with the experience we received at the Gaslight 3rd floor club. Michelle and the rest of the staff were very accommodating and made our dreams become reality! If you are planning an event or wedding reception PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE consider working with the Gaslight, Michelle and staff! You will not regret your decision :)! -Tim & Ashley White
We recently hosted a PRIDE fundraiser at the Gas Light in the upstairs nightclub, and we could not have asked for a better location, or staff. Michelle was a dream to work with,and handled all of the details in a timely and professional manner. We will definitely be back next year, and highly recommend the Portsmouth Gas Light for any private events.
We chose the Gas Light in Portsmouth New Hampshire to host our daughters wedding rehearsal dinner. The location and the room were absolutely perfect, Michelle worked with us to make it the perfect segue to our daughters wedding day! The food, the staff, the atmosphere were great! The entire night was a huge success. I wholeheartedly recommend the Gaslight for your next function!
Michelle was absolutely phenomenal to work with as we planned our event! We knew we wanted to host our welcome dinner at Portsmouth Gas Light due to the quality of their food offerings but the space and professionalism of all the staff was an added bonus. Our group was small and the event staff really made us all feel a bit special. Michelle experience planning events was a great help and she made this event so easy! We cannot recommend the site and staff enough!
We were very happy with our wedding welcome party at the Portsmouth Gas Light Company. Michelle helped us plan the menu, took care of decorating the room for us, and made sure that the drinks and food were replenished during our three-hour event. Our guests enjoyed the historic, laid-back atmosphere of the room, with its exposed brick and big windows. The location in downtown Portsmouth was ideal for guests who wanted to further explore after our party. Great spot!
Had an amazing engagement event at gaslight. The staff were friendly and Michelle was amazing! She made the whole process easy and simple. She was fast to respond to emails and phone calls. Also very affordable for the space and location in Portsmouth. Highly recommend!!

We had such a great time at this facility. It was great to have such an awesome hands on team that was always willing to add/change things right up to the last minute to make our experience the best we could have. For our Global leadership meetings moving forward we will always use the Gas Light, and to top of the service/venue the food was top notch! Cheers!
We hosted a destination wedding in Portsmouth, NH & had our welcome party @ Gas Light. The venue was perfect & our experience working with Michelle, the Events Coordinator was seamless. She made planning our event so easy & enjoyable. Our guests loved the food & the historic space. A few of our friends went back to Gas Light after our wedding to post party! Highly recommend!
This place was absolutely amazing! Their event coordinator made everything so simple and easy for us, that is was a stress free time organizing a rather large retirement party. She was great with communicating and provided such a quick response whenever needed. Everything went perfectly! No stress, and everyone enjoyed their time here. Thank you all for everything you and your amazing team did!
