About The Yard & Felt

A sunlit social hub under one expansive warehouse roof

The Yard & Felt is a sunlit, approachable social hub combining a wood-fired hearth restaurant with a legitimate, fully licensed offline real-money casino under one expansive warehouse roof. The atmosphere is casual and vibrant, with zero dress codes or elitist barriers. Enjoy wood-fired flatbreads and crisp craft ciders, then step right into live table gaming without leaving the building.

The venue seamlessly blends a hearth kitchen and a real-money gaming floor, allowing guests to move between dining and gaming in an open-plan layout with a visual connection between kitchen and gaming areas. It is designed for social groups and solo visitors alike. The Yard & Felt rejects the dark, exclusive casino stereotype, offering a bright, friendly space where natural light, timber, and greenery dominate the interior, and staff are trained to be welcoming and helpful, especially to newcomers.

Hearth Kitchen, Bar & Courtyard

Wood-fired feasts, craft drinks, and a sun-drenched courtyard

The kitchen specialises in wood-fired steaks, charred local prawns, sourdough pizzas, and seasonal market salads, all cooked over Australian ironbark charcoal. An open kitchen pass lets guests watch chefs at work, adding theatre to every order. All-day dining and a late-night supper menu run from 11:30 AM until 2:00 AM.

A curated selection of independent Australian craft beers, natural wines, and fresh botanical cocktails complements the food, with an emphasis on local and independent producers. The courtyard features lush native greenery, skylights, and communal timber sharing tables, creating a relaxed outdoor dining atmosphere that is open-air in feel yet protected from the weather. It is ideal for groups and casual gatherings, and the open kitchen experience gives foodies a transparent, interactive view of every dish coming off the coals.

Offline Casino & Real-Money Gaming Floor

Live tables, modern pokies, and guaranteed real-money payouts

The gaming floor features Live Blackjack tables with welcoming Australian dealers and accessible minimum bets, European Single-Zero Roulette wheels, and Texas Hold'em and Omaha poker cash games. Weekly community poker tournaments and friendly dealers who explain rules to newcomers make the floor approachable for first-time players.

A comfortable, relaxed lounge houses modern electronic gaming machines (pokies) for those who prefer solo play, with the latest machines in a well-lit space and no high-pressure atmosphere. Social dice and card tables with clear instructions are available for newcomers who want to learn in a friendly environment, with staff providing guidance and explanations.

An on-site cashier desk offers instant cash-in, cash-out, and guaranteed real-money payouts, with upfront table rules and sensible betting limits. All gaming is 100% government-regulated for fairness and transparency.

Responsible gaming is central to every visit. Entry is strictly 21+, and staff are trained to support player wellbeing. Read our responsible gaming policy.
