About Alfresco Deck @ Palm Cove Tavern
Palm Cove Tavern is the local pub on Veivers Road, set in tropical gardens a few minutes from Palm Cove Beach. It hosts weddings, engagement parties, milestone birthdays, recovery days and work functions across three semi-private spaces. The Alfresco Deck takes the most guests of the three. It is a covered outdoor area with a misting system to keep the crowd cool, and a large screen that can show the footy or your own photos and videos. The deck holds up to 120 guests standing or 60 seated, and can be hired day or night, seven days a week. For more room, the Beer Garden Lawn under the palms takes 100 standing, and the indoor Main Bar suits 60. Food runs from shared platters and $10 substantial canapés to a plated set menu served at alternate drop, at $65 per person for two courses or $75 for three. A high tea package starts at $20 per person for groups of 20 or more. Drinks packages come in standard and premium tiers for two, three or four hours, starting at $46 per person. Spirits and cocktails can be added to either tier, and the team will tailor a package to the event.
