Your Guide to Hiring Restaurants with Function Rooms in Melbourne

Restaurants with function rooms in Melbourne come in all shapes and sizes so there are a few things that you should consider while searching:

  • Pricing structure. Many restaurants with function rooms are happy to charge per person, but many others charge a flat hiring fee even if your number of guests is well below the capacity of the room. Always check whether you will need to rent the whole space or can get away with booking just what you need.
  • Hours. Restaurants in Melbourne are open for a wide variety of hours, with some venues closing relatively early compared to their next-door neighbours. Double-check that the restaurant you’re booking is open late if necessary!
  • Seating arrangement. Do you want to use the restaurant’s function room to mingle with drinks or are you more interested in a sit-down affair? Use Tagvenue’s filters to find the best arrangement for your function.

The smaller function room was ideal for our group of 15. We were able to chat easily and were well supported by the wait staff. We had a set menu with plenty of options and dietary needs catered for, and the food was universally enjoyed. A great venue, particularly for a small group
