Birthday Party Venues in Ferntree Gully

Choosing the Right Birthday Party Venue

A 21st that wants a disco ball and a 60th that wants a carvery can both land at the same Burwood Highway pub. The Ferntree Gully Hotel, at 1130 Burwood Hwy, spreads its private functions across three rooms, each with a different feel.

Three rooms, three kinds of birthday:

The Corner Bar: the intimate pick at 40 seated or 120 cocktail, with its own entrance, art deco chandeliers, a lounge corner and a disco ball over the dance floor.
Garfield's: entered privately through the accommodation reception, it seats 100 or holds 220 for cocktails, with a dance floor, courtyard, bar and AV of its own.
The Middle: holds the most people, seating 120 or taking 300 standing, with room on its stage for live music or a DJ and a big courtyard outside.
On the plate: two-course set menus from $44 per person, a three-course option, or a carvery buffet for a family-style milestone.
Party extras: a DJ, a photo booth, a light-up 21 frame, a mesh backdrop and chair covers can all be added.

Relatives travelling in for the celebration can take a room in the on-site motel. Enquire with the date and expected numbers.

Cocktail packages last five hours and bundle attendants, linen, security, platters and an opening bar tab.
Sit-down birthdays can pick between a two-course and a three-course set menu.
The carvery buffet suits a family lunch or dinner where guests help themselves.
Garfield's has its own bathrooms and bar, which keeps a milestone dinner self-contained.
