Warmly lit poker room with timber table, raspberry felt, playing cards and clay chips

A Room Wrapped in Velvet

The Poker Room is designed as an intimate enclave, where deep teal walls and raspberry accents echo the Velvet Ribbon Rooms identity. Soft velvet textures on seating and wall panels absorb sound and soften every edge, while warm, low-level lighting keeps attention on the tables rather than the room around them.

The acoustic design is deliberately considered. Conversation stays clear without echo, so a quiet observation or a shared laugh never gets lost. The result is a space that feels private even when every seat is taken.

Guests often describe the room as a retreat from the brightness and pace outside—a place where the evening can slow down and settle into its own rhythm.

Tables Built for Conversation

Every element of the Poker Room is chosen to support the face-to-face game, from the weight of a chip to the angle of the light.

Solid Timber Frames

Each table is crafted from solid Australian timber, with a smooth felt surface that invites the shuffle of cards. Custom-built to seat up to eight players comfortably, the felt comes in deep teal with subtle ribbing, while sturdy legs carry brass accents.

Tactile Accessories

Cards and chips are always on hand as physical accessories, adding weight and ritual to every hand. High-quality playing cards have a linen finish, and clay composite chips appear in raspberry and ivory. No digital devices at the table.

Face-to-Face Focus

The Poker Room is designed for eye contact and conversation, not screens. There are no overhead monitors or electronic displays. Lighting is angled to illuminate the table surface, and seating is arranged for natural interaction.

A Table for Every Appetite

The restaurant's contemporary Australian menu is available to Poker Room guests, with dishes designed to be enjoyed between hands. Small plates and shareable options arrive at the table, and beverages are served without leaving the room.

From kitchen to table, the focus stays on the evening itself. Guests can pause for a bite, return to the game, and let the rhythm of dining and playing flow naturally together.
