Management and the whole team were absolutely lovely and helpful! It made the process of planning the baby shower easy. The location and parking was very easy! My guests were very impressed by the fresh canapés and were all so delicious! The vibe was also lovely too and we all appreciated the open space of the venue and how warm and inviting it was. So many of my guests were impressed with the service and they had an amazing time. Would highly highly recommend this venue to anyone. I am so glad we chose frontside food and wine to host our special day. I would definitely rebook for future functions.

Could not fault it

Absolutely outstanding service! The food was incredible! Thrilled we chose Frontside Food & Wine for our special family event for 80 people. Staff went above and beyond to accommodate all requests and communicate in the lead up to the event and on the night was faultless. Couldn’t be happier with the evening. Thank you Ann Marie and team for making our celebration so very special!

We hosted our entire wedding - ceremony & reception with 85 guests - at Frontside and had the best experience! Anne Marie and the team did everything possible to ensure we had the best possible day, including being extremely helpful and accomodating during the organisation period and going above and beyond on the day. Not to mention the AMAZING food! We can't recommend Frontside highly enough!

Ann Marie and the entire team and Frontside Food and Wine were incredible. The food was delicious- canapes, grazing board and pizzas! Its a beautiful venue and I got so many compliments from my guests on the whole evening. Ann Marie made sure that everything ran smoothly from woah to go. I would 100% without hesitation have an event here again. I highly recommend this venue and this brilliant team.
