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.

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! We just love to host events on our Sundeck

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.

Beautiful outdoor garden, responsive event manager, tasty food

The event manager promised me some additional bonus if I've booked my event within 7 days and have a bar tab . However , was disappointed that it was not fulfilled despite us spending about $500 at the event for 30 pax.

Amazing venue and staff. I booked the area for my 30th birthday with around 40 people and the space worked perfectly! The area has a retractable roof and heaters which kept us warm and dry in August. Very happy with the service and would highly recommend this space!

Amazing venue all my guest loved it. the atmosphere was such a vibe. Phil and all the staff were so friendly and very helpful. Definitely recommend this place for hosting a birthday party in a private function area.
