When entering you’re met with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating with lots of colour and plants. Ordering a drink here will set you back a bit and it’s quite hard to order within a price range with there being no price list for the bar. The food is good with moderate servings but nothing to boast about and again will set you back a bit. Overall a pretty good place to come with friends or family offering something for everyone but could be improved in some areas.

We had our wedding here, and the staff were very accommodating! Annaleise was wonderful to work with in coordinating our big day. She was always reachable in the lead-up to the event to answer any questions we had, and the whole process was very smooth. We did a few non-traditional things, and they were more than happy to help facilitate our bar ceremony, as well as our board game night at the end. Our puzzle hunt/escape room also fit perfectly into the space, and having access to the arcade let our guests have a blast! The in-house catering was delicious, and we felt the pricing as an event was very fair. There was a small venue hire fee with an food spend minimum (which we easily hit by virtue of having the event itself). We picked this venue because we're bougie and Melbourne af, and this place is 100% that vibe!

The food isn’t great. Chicken Parmi was absolutely the worst I have ever had. The audacity to believe you can serve up such mediocre food at a high price is outrageous. The venue is no where near busy enough to think that serving up cold food which clearly looks reheated. Add on top of that the electronic message that tells customers there is a 30 minute delay makes it more insulting.

Always a super fun time at welcome to Thornbury. Drink prices are fairly reasonable, tons of outdoor seating and a rotation of different food trucks. Can get a bit busy at times but still a great spot
