Signature Supper Lounge Evenings

Curated late-night culinary experiences

Our Signature Supper Lounge Evenings are designed for guests who prefer their dining room dimly lit, their menus thoughtful, and their evenings unhurried. Expect modern Australian platters built for sharing, layered with house-made elements and paired with spirit-forward cocktails.

  • Seasonal supper series

    Follow a rotating calendar of late-night menus featuring local produce, coastal influences and quietly indulgent desserts, served from late evening into the small hours.

  • Sommelier-led pairings

    Our team guides you through pairings of boutique Australian wines and Suited signature cocktails, calibrated to the depth and texture of each course.

  • Intimate, limited-seat services

    Each supper evening is capped at a comfortable capacity to preserve a sense of privacy and ease, with staggered seating to keep service measured and attentive.

Card Salon Tournament Nights

Velvet-clad back-room tournament evenings

Behind the main bar, the Suited Card Lounge unfolds in deep burgundy and soft lamplight. Here, conversation sits alongside carefully hosted card game tournaments designed entirely for in-person play.

  • Local card leagues & friendly tournaments

    Join rotating formats across the week, from relaxed social tables to structured tournament nights with clearly paced rounds and respectful house rules.

  • Curated offline gaming tables

    Tables are set exclusively for face-to-face, offline play. There is no online gaming or digital wagering—only considered play, tactility and conversation.

  • Weekend feature nights

    Look for special weekend events that thread together card play with late-night tasting platters and reserved lounge seating for your group.

Featured Guest Chefs & Mixologists

Residencies, collaborations and one-night-only menus

Across the year, Suited Supper Lounge welcomes guest chefs and cocktail artists who share our taste for modern Australian flavours, meticulous detail and low-light hospitality. Their residencies and one-off collaborations bring fresh narratives to the room.

Guest chef supper series

Tasting menus with a Suited finish

Visiting chefs design limited-run menus that respond to the season, the bar program and the late-night tempo of the lounge, often available for a handful of services only.

Signature cocktail artists

Bar takeovers & rare techniques

Acclaimed mixologists curate evenings that champion Australian spirits, low-waste techniques and quiet theatre at the bar, from clarified classics to smoked velvet nightcaps.

Behind-the-pass access

Chef encounters & Q&A moments

Select events include short talks and table-side introductions, giving guests an opportunity to explore the thinking behind each course and pairing.

Artisan Spirit Tasting Sessions

Guided tastings of Australian wines, craft spirits and rare liqueurs

Our tasting sessions are shaped as intimate, sit-down experiences where education and indulgence share the same glass. Each flight is served with considered late-night bites from the supper kitchen.

  • Curated Australian flights

    Sample boutique Australian wines, small-batch gins, aged rums and distinctive liqueurs, all handpicked for their story, texture and compatibility with our menu.

  • Expert hosts & structured pacing

    Sessions are led by our in-house specialists or invited producers who walk guests through aroma, structure and finish at an unhurried pace.

  • Paired late bites

    Each pour is matched with refined, supper-style snacks and small plates that highlight the nuance of the spirit or wine in the glass.

Members-Only Velvet Table Soirées

Invitation-only evenings for our inner circle

Velvet Table Soirées are quiet, invitation-only nights reserved for our most frequent guests and trusted partners. The room feels familiar, the menu off-menu, and the service tailored to lingering conversations.

  • Exclusive menus & cellar pulls

    Discover one-night-only dishes, reserve spirits and library wines that do not appear on our standard lists, often served in shared formats for the table.

  • Private music & considered pacing

    Music is curated for the evening alone, with a gently slowed service cadence that privileges time and connection over turnover.

  • Networking & hosted introductions

    Our team facilitates warm introductions between guests where welcome, supporting both quiet conversation and deeper professional connections.

Member notes

Velvet Table Soirées are strictly offline, photography-light evenings. Details are shared directly with invited guests via discreet communications.

Corporate & partner evenings

Live Jazz & Lounge Nights

A soundtrack tailored to the room

On select evenings, the lounge shifts into a live soundtrack of jazz, soul and low-fi grooves, with performers chosen for their ability to underscore conversation rather than compete with it.

Live ensemble sets Late

Small bands, rich sound

Trio and quartet line-ups bring warmth to the room with brushed drums, upright bass and velvet-toned brass, balanced for an intimate late-night space.

Guest vocalists Select

Vocals made for supper clubs

Guest vocalists lean into standards, slow-burn soul and contemporary lounge pieces, matching the tempo of the evening service.

Lounge curation Ongoing

Curated playlists between sets

Between live sets, carefully sequenced playlists keep the atmosphere consistent—subtle, textured and always complementary to conversation.

Interactive Culinary Workshops

Hands-on, palate-led learning in the supper lounge

Interactive Culinary Workshops are intimate, instructor-led evenings designed to sharpen your palate and broaden your understanding of pairing, plating and presentation in a relaxed, late-night setting.

  • Wine & cocktail pairing labs

    Explore why certain flavours gravitate towards each other as our team walks you through pairing fundamentals, from acidity and texture to temperature and glassware.

  • Dessert artistry & finishing touches

    Discover techniques for plating desserts with structure and theatre, from garnishes and sauces to tableside finishing flourishes.

  • Small, focused groups

    Class sizes are intentionally limited to keep the experience interactive, with generous time for questions, tasting and practice.

Designed for curious diners

Workshops are suitable for enthusiastic home cooks, hospitality teams and corporate groups seeking an elevated, engaging after-dark experience.

Accessibility and dietary notes can be discussed in advance so our team can shape a comfortable, inclusive evening for every guest.
