Race Night Dining Packages
Race Night Dining Packages
The Melbourne Greyhounds can cater for groups of diners in our Temlee Dining Room wings on a Saturday Race Night. We offer set course dining and beverage packages – and can even gift you a race name to make the night all that little more fun and memorable.
Make it more than just dinner and racing with friends or the family.
The real beauty of deciding to attend a Saturday Race Night at the Melbourne Greyhounds is the flexibility in our food and beverage offer. You can simply choose to dine in our brilliant City View Bistro or at a indoor or outside table on the concourse level with food purchased from the Midas Cafe and Bar – or take it up a level and arrange a set course seated or cocktail Race Night Dining & Entertainment Package, served in your own private area.
Our grand Temlee Dining Room offers more than just our City View Bistro. A unique and inspiring room, it has a large main dining area that can hold up to 200 diners and a pair of east and west wings that can cater for smaller seated groups of up to 30 and 50 people respectively. (More for a cocktail style function). These wings allow guests to hold private functions on a Saturday Race Night and still enjoy sensational elevated track views, seated dining, tote and bar access. For those who’d prefer to be closer to the action, there’s ‘The Deck‘, the most sophisticated entertainment space we offer (read on below) as well as The Terrace.
If you’re seeking a unique night out, where great food, entertainment and a little privacy is paramount, then contact the Melbourne Greyhounds hospitality team to discuss a Race Night Dining & Entertainment Package and the hiring of your own on course space.
Saturday Race Nights are perfect for a:
- Hens Party
- Bucks Party
- Birthday Celebration
- Sporting Club Function
- Engagement Party
- Girls or Mates Night Out
- Entertaining Clients
- Work or Staff Function
What if you’d prefer to be located somewhere else around our expansive venue? Maybe the racing component is something you’re looking to avoid and want to host a stand-alone event? Great news, we've got options!
More places to dine and be entertained on a race night
If our grand Temlee dining room and either of its east and west wings aren’t exactly what you’re looking for, there are other spaces at the Melbourne Greyhounds to be entertained.
Introducing ‘The Deck’– the most sophisticated entertainment space we offer at The Meadows. As its name suggests (yep, the events and marketing team really went all out on this one), it comprises of a brilliant indoor space, with it’s own private bar, multiple audio-visual screens and bi-fold doors that open out and onto a wide timber boarded outside deck, located right next to the 525 meter start boxes. Architecturally sleek and modern, and with the ability to be heated or split system cooled it can be utilised in any season.
Oh, and did we mention it’s ideal for those seeking a party space that suits a stand-up cocktail function? A favourite with bucks, hens and work parties, this space is a great entertaining area for any social celebratory function or event. It’s also located in a prime position for race nights – right near the 525m starting boxes and amongst all the face paced action!
