About The Deck @ Dunwoody's Hotel
Dunwoody's Hotel is a pub on Sheridan Street in Cairns North with a bistro, sports bar, beer garden and gaming room. Its function spaces are all semi-private, and The Deck holds the most guests. The Deck is a semi-outdoor space under a roof, with timber floors, greenery, ceiling fans and festoon lighting. It seats 60 or holds 100 standing, has direct access to the bar and comes with a giant TV for speeches, slideshows or the footy. Smaller parties can book half of the deck, called The Deck Section, for up to 40. Indoors, the Back Bistro suits a standing event of up to 60, or 40 seated. Canapé packages come in four, six or eight pieces per guest, priced at $28, $38 and $46 per person, with substantial items such as mini burgers or fish and chips at $10 each. Platters for eight to 10 guests range from a $75 fruit platter to a $125 antipasto or Aussie platter. Drinks can run on a bar tab with a limit you set, a cash bar, or a beverage package of two to four hours. Standard packages start at $48 per person and premium ones at $59 per person. Set menus, canapé packages and beverage packages need at least 20 guests. You can bring your own cake with no cakeage fee, and decorations go up with management's approval.
