About The Met Hotel
The Met Hotel is a two-storey corner pub on Ruthven Street in Toowoomba City, next to the Toowoomba Sports Club. It is known for its stage and regular live music, and it takes private bookings for parties and functions in two separate areas. The Function Room sits beside the main bar, with entry from Ruthven Street. It suits around 40 to 50 guests and is curtained off for private functions, while guests keep access to the public bars. The Northern Wing is the larger option, with entry from Bowen Street. It brings together the dining room, foyer and lounge room for 50 to 100 or more guests, and has its own private bar, air conditioning, a cake table, a pool table, pinball machines and a frozen drink machine for birthday cocktails. Both areas have a TV screen for photo slideshows, background music and free wifi, and seating can be arranged for a sit-down meal or a cocktail-style party. Hosts can bring their own snacks and cake. For catering, the kitchen offers share platters that each serve 10 to 12 people, from mixed hot bites and sliders to tacos, sushi, seafood, smoked meats and grazing boards. There is no room hire fee and no minimum spend.
