Do you want to pay full price on drinks to have the bartenders half pour your drinks? then you have come to the right place. Don't organise an event here, you'll be serving yourself. Plenty of other Richmond venues that are next door that are less rude.

We had a great event at the rooftop. The place was a perfect spot for an early summer night event. The finger food was good too, particularly the chicken bites. A bit let down by the minimal selection of beers. When the music came on it drowned out our conversation and we had to leave. Neither of these minor issues took away from us having a great night.

SERVERE DISAPPOINT - Poor Service from Bar Staff, security at door, and bad food. We had our Christmas party at the venue on the week, spending $7500.
OUTRAGEOUS BAR SERVICE. Firstly the bartender was serving us basic spirits for half the night despite us paying $26 additional per head for the Premium spirits package upgrade; Secondly the 2nd bartender(Sam) was very rude, but on several occasions we witnessed him actually NOT pouring alcohol into our drinks, this on top of his arrogance and lack of customer service has really left us feeling disappointed and we will not be returning for a 3rd

We attended a friends 40th tonight at the balcony bar upstairs. Just wanted to say how incredible James your bar man was. Seriously the best customer service, personable, friendly and a great hospitality team member. People are quick to complain but I want to be quick to shout out about how great a staff member he is!! Please pass on our thanks for truly a great night with exceptional service.
