About Club West Lakes
Club West Lakes is the home of the local tennis, bowling, bridge and croquet clubs on Edwin Street at West Lakes Shore. Its clubrooms are hired out for private and corporate functions, from small get-togethers to large parties. The Main Hall sits at the eastern end of the building and looks over the bowling greens and some of the tennis courts. Bifold doors open into the Jubilee Lounge, which has dining tables and tall bar tables. The main hall splits into three areas that can be closed off or opened up, with room for up to 300 guests. One side is carpeted, one has a parquetry floor, and a members area has small tables and lounge chairs, with round tables seating eight elsewhere. The Norm Gibson Hall at the western end has its own entrance from the car park and holds up to 130 people. It is a BYO, self-catering space with a kitchenette and a covered verandah, and room outside for a barbecue, spit or food truck. The main hall is not BYO: the club bar and its staff serve drinks, with packages, tabs or subsidised drinks on offer. Hirers can use the club's catering or bring in their own caterer, and the large kitchen can be hired too. The club hosts birthdays, engagements, weddings, hens and bucks nights, quiz nights and dinner dances. A PA system and TV screens are available, and the operations manager can show you through before booking.

You have to line up and get to the counter to place the order. The menu is very limited. Drinks also available here. Food tastes average. They take time to prepare and serve you with the food once the order is placed.
