About this space

Our Sundeck area is super popular all year round. This gorgeous space is decorated with lots of flowers and fairy lights. This versatile space has larger tables suitable for larger groups and smaller booths suitable for smaller groups.

The entire Sundeck space can be booked exclusively for your event. An independent sound system allows you to have your own music, and we can tailor the set up of the tables to suit your event. A large LCD screen allows for a slideshow of your favorite photos, if you wish.

Tables can be rearranged to make space for a dance floor area

Being outdoors in Melbourne, we can never predict the weather, so our Sundeck conveniently features a retractable roof to cover the entire area, complete with gas heating so it will never be cold.

Bar tabs and catering are optional. Our function catering list includes GF, Vegan & Vegetarian options. Set up a bar tab or have your guests purchase their own drinks. We have a great range of cocktails on special 2 for $30 operating all the time!

There is no hire fee and no min spend for the Sundeck space in most cases. A quote will be provided based on your function requirements. Min spends may apply depending on your function requirements

We close at 3am Friday and Saturday nights (depending on the demand of the night), and most events continue into the wee hours of the morning.
