Your security guard wins. While I was let in the venue because it wouldn't of been worth me suing you for discrimination, your security guard needs to be way less judgemental. First asks for my ID, then proceeds to walk me to the door, because I needed to be a member? Then signed in to my doxa rewards on my phone forgetting I was a member and he was still going to tell me to leave? What did I do wrong anytime I've been there before? First time I went there I had no problems, but last night? What the hell was the go there. Just after midnight was the time I rocked up. Showed my proof of age card. (not good enough? It shows I'm 30) I won't return. Not worth my time to just be judged for doing nothing wrong.

What’s the point of having security and staff members monitoring patrons in the pokie room when an Asian guy who was clearly sick was allowed to sit there and play 2 machines and cough for over 1 hour?!

We've visited from NSW to find that Reema & MJ make a mean espresso martini! Such friendly staff.

Very well laid out place with plenty of space. Coffee was nice flavored, however it was on the week side. Staff are fantastic.

Too small, with machines packed in the corner next to each other like sardines. Staff were cold and disinterested, greeted them and got ignored. They would rather sit around and talk to each other than do their jobs. Gaming floor staff being careless—coming around loudly banging the chairs into the machines.

Small pokie venue to begin with however now with even fewer machines operating due to covid. The layout is very dark & not a terribly welcomong environment at all, & the distance between machines made for a disappointing feeling for the place overall. At the end of the day however these factors are beyond the control of the venue as they are related to the current situstion woth COVID so the venue shoild not be held to blame for this. Still the venue made the choice to operate knowing the restrictions & i feel could have made more of an effort to do things to improve the customers experience & thats why i have given a mid range star rating.

I'll admit the drink prices aren't bad and they have a largish beer garden. Not a bad place overall but the shame is that homeless people constantly walk past asking for money or cigarettes. Great selection of machines and helpful staff. I give it a thumbs up surprisingly.

Games are rigged & 6 free games, paid out nothing with the venue pocketing 120-200 with the pay out stopped. It had all winners and nothing paid out. Taking 55 dollars in exchange for 0.. the game was changed, or the moving of that machine was changed. And my belief is, the reason why they did that is because they could legally 'RAM-clear' the machine. "The reality is, nearly all machines, 99 per cent of machines, will get 'RAM-cleared' within the five years.

Found the opposite of others here. Staff were more interested in being on their phones or chatting to each other. Doesn't warrant the prices for the beers ($15+!!) and super pokey
