FAQ: Planning your offline event

These frequently asked questions cover the essentials of group bookings, accessibility, and how to design a seamless offline poker or card lounge experience. For anything more specific, our team is only a message away.

How far in advance should we book a private poker lounge event?

For Friday and Saturday evenings, we recommend securing your preferred time at least two to four weeks ahead. Midweek events often have more flexibility, but we still encourage early reservations, especially for larger groups or exclusive card room hire.

What group sizes can you accommodate?

We design events for everything from intimate groups of six through to larger gatherings that combine multiple poker tables and dining spaces. Our team can propose layouts across the restaurant, card lounge, and private rooms to best suit your numbers.

Are your poker lounge and restaurant spaces accessible?

Yes. Key areas of the restaurant and card lounge are designed with accessibility in mind. When you enquire, please let us know about any mobility needs or support requirements so we can plan the most comfortable path of travel and seating for your guests.

Can you tailor card formats and themes to our group?

Absolutely. We regularly customise Top 10 offline tournament formats, Best 10 classic card games, and themed after dark concepts to align with your preferences and the card confidence of your guests.

Do guests need prior experience with poker or card games?

No. Our hosts are skilled at welcoming both seasoned players and complete newcomers. We can balance tables so that everyone feels at ease, explaining rules clearly and keeping the focus on connection and enjoyment.

How do we start planning an event?

Begin by sharing your preferred date, approximate group size, and the style of event you have in mind. From there, our concierge team will suggest suitable packages, menu options, and card lounge formats, then guide you through confirming your reservation.
