Venue Testimonials
Thank you guys for a wonderful lunch! Staff are extremely friendly. Very attentive at what we ordered and when it was going to be ready, especially during peak lunch hour on a Sunday. … The food went above our expectations. Very well presented with stunning colours and the flavours blended perfectly for each dish we picked. The desserts were especially exceptional.

A decent spot to have lunch at Centennial. We were able to sit with our dog on the balcony part and enjoyed some sun, live music and good food...

I visit regularly, great cafe / restaurant / function centre in the wonderful setting of Centennial Park. As a management consultant I’d like to comment; it’s very well set up and the staff and managers are very good. … Today I was very efficiently and pleasantly cared for by Jordy from Peru and the manager Andrea. Interesting food, exceptional ambiance. Pet friendly.
