The Imperial Hotel and Eumundi Brewery truly is an entertainment hub with it all. With fabulous spaces for functions, particularly Christmas parties and a seemingly endless list of world-class entertainment, there is something for every occassion.
Following the recent opening of the Eumundi Brewery, the majestic Imperial Hotel Eumundi is a must-do more than ever before. With its colourful, creative decor and relaxed vibe, this jewel of the hinterland is a visual feast with a menu guaranteed to appeal to all the foodies in your tribe.
If you’re planning an event, the premises can cater for Christmas party groups from 20 people all the way up to 400. Smaller groups are free to simply book tables and order from the hotel menu. Share-plates are a fantastic idea for groups, including avocado and haloumi bruscetta on sourdough, barramundi spring rolls with citrus soy dipping sauce and the crunchiest, tastiest little American-style chicken wings with blue cheese dipping sauce. Share flash fried salt and pepper calamari or vegetable gyoza with wakame and everyone’s tastes are covered.
Tailoring creative and personalised experiences for your special event, the hotel provides high-quality presentation and an inviting atmosphere with friendly, good old fashioned service.
The venue boasts five diverse function areas with flexible layout options for cocktail soirees to sit-down dinners, corporate seminars to momentous celebrations.
The functions menu incorporates fresh, seasonal produce from the region and offers a selection of modern global foods. The passionate chefs can tailor a menu that will complement your event and satisfy a range of palettes and dietary requirements.
Look out for their new summer menu kicking off at the start of November which – among other exciting additions – will include barramundi croquettes, seared tuna tacos and a watermelon rice noodle salad … now that is fresh and innovative fare.
For private functions, talk to the hotel about the various functions spaces on offer and the special functions menus with options for canapes and cocktails through to sit-down two or three-course dinners.
The hotel can also assist with entertainment for your functions – from solo singers and bands through to magicians and circus performers.
For something different, groups can also book a Christmas party brewery tour with behind-the-scenes tours of the new Eumundi Brewery and, of course, the opportunity to sample the merchandise.
