What to Know Before Booking Christmas Party Venues

End-of-year groups on the coast choose between three suburbs with three sizes of venue. Hillarys has The Waterfront Tavern with a room for 150, Mindarie has Portofinos Beach.Bar.Kitchen reserving sections for up to 80, and Scarborough has SKOL, a smaller bar and eatery that tops out at 40.

Which suburb fits the team:

  • A whole company in Hillarys can take R.Scotts Function Room at The Waterfront Tavern, closed to other guests.
  • A department of 40 to 80 in Mindarie can reserve a section at Portofinos, all four areas looking to the water.
  • A small team in Scarborough can book SKOL's courtyard exclusively for 25 to 40 or its private dining room for 15.
  • For a sit-down lunch of 70 in Hillarys, the Marina Lounge is sectioned off for privacy.
  • For a café-style gathering in Scarborough, Fika at SKOL becomes a function space for 25.
