We had our wedding here recently and we had such a wonderful time! All the staff were top notch and truly went above and beyond. The function space was gorgeous, and the food was awesome :)

Our company had our Christmas party here, the staff were lovely. The food was okay, and drinks were good. Music atmosphere was 50/50 but overall great place to hold a work party.

Arcade is a lot of fun after some beers. Mr Burger is reliably good. Toilets were a mess, with seats ripped off two them. I guess it’s due to the patrons but not a great look and pretty rubbish if you needed to use them!

My partner and I booked out 'The Showroom' to announce our elopement to all of our family and friends and I cannot thank Luke and all of the staff/venue enough! It was absolutely perfect! Everything we could have ever asked for, we received with no worries at all. Super accommodating and lovely, could not recommend them enough for hosting an event. Thank-you all so much!
