PAYMENT POLICY: In order to reserve one of our event spaces, Harpoon requires a signed contract and a non-refundable deposit. The 50% non-refundable deposit is required for all events, regardless of date, time of day or event space rental. In this case, the 50% event space deposit will be covered by the Harpoon Beer Hall. Any additional cost added to the contract will require payment in full. By signing the event confirmation and submitting your event deposit, you are agreeing to this deposit policy.  Once you have authorized your credit card in the event portal, we reserve the right to process payment if payment is not processed in line with discussed payment deadlines. 

Final payment for any charges exceeding the food and beverage minimum including but not limited to the event space, beverages, pretzels, food, room rental and gratuity is due by the end of the event in full. Harpoon accepts cash, credit card or check. An 18% gratuity and 5% admin fee is automatically added to the final bill. Harpoon Beer Hall DOES NOT keep credit card information on site and therefore the credit card must be present at the event to charge the final bill. If the room rental requires a minimum spend and the client does not meet the minimum spend, the difference will be added to the final bill as a room rental. Exceptions will not be made. 

*CANCELLATION POLICY: In the case of force majeure events, including but not limited to: acts of God, such as severe acts of nature or weather events including floods, fires, earthquakes, hurricanes, or explosions; war, acts of terrorism, pandemics, and epidemics; acts of governmental authorities such as expropriation, condemnation, and changes in laws and regulations; strikes and labor disputes; and certain accidents, the Harpoon Events Team will communicate as soon as information becomes available if there will be any disruptions in the planned operations. 

If Harpoon must cancel or reschedule your indoor event for any reason, your prize can be applied towards a future event. If the client must cancel the event for any reason, the prize will not be valid for a new event. If the client wishes to reschedule the event for any reason at least two (2) weeks prior to the event date, they will have 48 hours to select a new event date (agreed upon by the client and a member of the Harpoon Events Team) for which the prize can be applied.

Any cancellations within two (2) weeks of the scheduled event will no longer be able to use their prize package and a 5% admin fee from the final contracted cost (including prize money) of the event will be upheld.

We offer a 10% discount off your catering bill if you choose our menu to move forward with. We cannot split or have two different caterers for one event (including THK). Harpoon also works with an exclusive list of caterers who are familiar with our space and operations. The client will work directly with the caterer to establish a menu, pricing and place an order. All catering invoices will be signed and paid for directly by the client. While the caterers will provide the menu of your choice, Harpoon staff will be responsible for setup, clearing used tableware, and breakdown of catered events.

Full catering can be brought into the semi-private event space or Beer Hall buyouts; however, only appetizer-style catering with disposable dishware (ie. plates, utensils, napkins, serving dishes, etc.) can be brought into the Tasting Room.
