Lovely little venue, came here for one of Fever’s Concert by Candlelight. There’s plenty of free street parking on Moubray Street, but recommend to come early to get best spots. There’s a bar next door so grabbed a pint before the concert; lots of great options on tap, was $15.

Posting a review on here bc I barely saw any regarding the candlelight. We went to the candlelight concert for ABBA at Ormond Hall and it was beautiful. The service to get in the hall was great and fast. The staffs were really nice, the vibes were set and even their bathroom looks amazing!

Colloquially known as 'The Commons'. This is the place for a function! (or a quick meal with friends) When the weather is great, this place is a treat. Open areas (like The Beer Garden), and seated areas (like The Rose Garden), plus much more. 8 or 9 function areas, for the formal (Weddings, Bar Miz-pah etc) to the casual (hens, engagement, work 'functions' etc), if you have an event, there will be a room to suit your needs. Check out the Chapel and The Conservatory. Keep an eye on the calendar for themed seasonal events (Like the Australian Open) Pet friendly 🐕
