  • Spacious Group Gatherings

    A spacious dining room accommodates large parties and long celebrations comfortably, ensuring groups can converse easily.

    The restaurant is both large and spacious and you'll need breadcrumbs to find your way back from the toilets 🚻 though all this makes for a fantastic place for groups; the atmosphere being conducive to talking across others without shouting.

Before you head over

Practical advice on parking, facilities, and ordering for a smooth barbecue experience.

  • Arrive Early for Shared Lot Parking

    Dedicated parking in the shared lot is limited; plan for extra transit time or consider booking early dinner sittings to secure a spot smoothly.

  • Note Restroom Distance Across Shared Facilities

    Restroom facilities are shared with adjoining venues and located down a corridor away from the dining room, so plan trips ahead during longer meals.

  • Ask Staff for Dietary Accommodations & Swaps

    Staff are proactive with substitutions and accommodating dietary concerns such as sesame allergies or protein swaps upon request.
