The Eucalyptus Felt Difference

A Surface Made for Smooth, Considered Play

Our tables are covered in premium eucalyptus poker felt, a sustainable Australian material that provides a smooth, consistent surface for card play. The felt is durable, eco-friendly, and naturally low-sheen, so cards glide effortlessly without distracting reflections. Its muted green tone complements the lounge's palette of pearl white, eucalyptus, and dark mahogany, helping the table feel integrated into the room rather than like a casino fixture.

  • Australian-made eucalyptus fibre blend
  • Consistent, low-friction surface for clean card handling
  • Naturally durable and easy to maintain
  • Colour-matched to the Card Lounge interior

Each table is handcrafted by local artisans, with attention to detail that reflects the club's commitment to quality. Solid timber frames use dovetail joints for lasting strength, rails are upholstered in hand-stitched full-grain leather, and custom inlays inspired by the pavilion arch appear at the table's centre. The result is a piece of furniture that feels as considered as the room around it.

Design Philosophy

Form Meets Function at Every Seat

Comfort and posture matter during a long evening of face-to-face play. Our tables are designed so that the physical experience supports, rather than distracts from, the game.

Ergonomic Rails

The padded rails are upholstered in premium leather, providing comfort for long poker sessions. High-density foam cushioning keeps forearms relaxed, while durable stitching ensures the rail holds its shape over time. Choose dark mahogany or eucalyptus green to match the room.

Optimal Table Height

Tables are set at standard tournament height to promote good posture and easy chip handling. Adjustable feet allow precise levelling on any floor surface, so the table remains stable and comfortable throughout the evening.

Integrated Cup Holders

Discreet cup holders keep drinks secure without interrupting the playing surface. Stainless steel inserts are placed every two seats, protecting the felt and keeping the table clear for cards and chips.

Table Formats

A Table for Every Kind of Game

  • Texas Hold'em Tables

    Our signature tables are designed for Texas Hold'em, with a full oval shape and seating for up to nine players. The dealer position is marked discreetly, and a custom card shuffler slot keeps the game moving without breaking the table's clean lines.

  • Round Tables

    For more intimate games, we offer round tables that seat six. These are ideal for smaller groups, casual play, or players who prefer a closer, more conversational arrangement.

  • High-Stakes Private Tables

    For exclusive evenings, private tables can be arranged in a separate alcove. Seating up to eight, these tables are paired with enhanced privacy screens and dedicated service, creating a focused environment for serious play.

The Card Lounge Atmosphere

A Private Club Feel, Not a Casino Floor

The Card Lounge is designed to feel like a private club, with warm lighting, comfortable seating, and a refined ambience that encourages conversation and focus. Soft, indirect lighting keeps the tables evenly lit without glare. Acoustic panels reduce noise so players can hear every bet and every quiet observation. Artwork inspired by Australian landscapes adds a sense of place, while the absence of casino-style signage keeps the room calm and considered.

Quality Materials

Built to Last, Chosen for Character

From the frame to the felt, every component is chosen for longevity and performance. The materials below are selected not only for durability but for the way they feel under the hand and the way they age over time.

  • Frames: Australian blackwood or Tasmanian oak, selected for stability and rich grain.
  • Rails: Full-grain leather that develops a soft patina with use.
  • Felt: Eucalyptus fibre blend for a smooth, sustainable playing surface.
  • Hardware: Solid brass fittings that resist wear and complement the timber.
