Staff service, ability to accommodate dietary restrictions e.g. FODMAP, kitchen willing to put aside some food for latecomers, quality of food (good feedback - food was really yummy - kudos to chef!).

High minimum spend of $2500 nearly did not put this as a first choice of venue. Reducing to $2000 would definitely improve the rating as a preferred location for other events.

I had such an easy and fantastic experience planning and enjoying my 30th here. Beccy and Antonia were always very friendly, responsive, helpful and great at providing ideas and solutions. On the night, I had so many compliments about the location, the venue and the food. Some people even said the sliders were some of the best they'd ever had! Elen and the team on the night were also very friendly, helpful and a pleasure to celebrate my night with :)
