FAQ’s – Kiosk

Q. Am I allowed to bring my own food and drinks into the Beer Garden?

A.  NO, non-Aqua Blue food and drinks are not permitted in the Beer Garden. We ask that you treat our licenced area as you would treat another Pub or Hotel. Licenced venues and food businesses across Australia have this type of policy and Aqua Blue is no different. We hope that when our customers consider the Liquor licencing conditions, our commitment to food safety, the protection of staff and customers, waste management logistics etc, then they will understand why this policy exists.

Q. Will the Kiosk remain open after Sunset?

A. Yes, the Kiosk kitchen will remain open for food orders until 10pm. After 10pm small snacks and nibbles will be available through the Beer Garden bar, which will be open until the advertised closing time of 12.30am.

Q. Do Children have to pay?

A. Children under 2 are free but the cover charge applies to all other guests.

Q. Can I bring my dog?

A.  No, unfortunately dogs will not be permitted in the Beer Garden from 6pm NYE. We love having dogs at the Aqua Blue Kiosk and we happily provide water facilities, dog treats and even the occasional stuffed toy to many of the wonderful dogs that visit us. Sadly, the evidence indicates that Fireworks and dogs just don’t mix, with many dogs suffering extraordinarily high levels of anxiety. Adding large crowds, other dogs and a highly charged atmosphere to the possible anxiety they may be feeling from the fireworks could lead to unusual behaviour and potential safety concerns for both dog and public alike.  

Q. Will you still be serving Fish and Chips on the night?

A. Yes, we will!  We know you love our awesome Fish and amazing Chips, and we wouldn’t dream of keeping you from them …BUT… we will be making a few changes for the night and offering a special New Years Eve menu. The changes will help us provide fresh, flavoursome and fast food and let customers spend more time having fun and less time waiting in line.

Q. Are we able to reserve tables?

A. No, tables cannot be reserved or booked. Tables will be chosen on a first come, first served basis from 6pm onwards. We will try and ensure that everyone has access to a table and chairs, and everyone will be comfortable. The Aqua Blue team will need to clear and prepare the area (30-60 minutes) prior to 6 pm so earlier access to tables will not be possible. We will try and ensure that everyone has access to a table and chairs

Q. May I bring a Picnic Hamper and picnic blanket?

A. Unfortunately there will not be enough room for Picnic blankets. The 200-person capacity has been set to allow everyone to enjoy a safe and comfortable night without overcrowding. We want everyone to have access to a table and chairs (we are hiring extras for the night) but once these are spaced out there will not be enough room for a Blankets and rugs etc.

Regarding the Hampers, please see the answer above.

Q. May I visit a food van and then eat in the Beer Garden?

A. As mentioned previously non-Aqua Blue food and drinks are not to be consumed in the Beer Garden during the NYE event. Of course, you are allowed to come and go from the Beer Garden as often as you like (but please be sure to wear the security wrist band to ensure re-entry). When you leave you can purchase food from one of the visiting food vans but we respectfully ask that you finish the food before returning to the Beer Garden.

FAQ - Restaurant - NYE Fancy Dress

Q. Are we able to book tables?

A. No, we are not taking bookings for tables. We will have a variety of tables and chairs available to sit and catch your breath but a formal table layout with bookings will not be available. We are hoping to create a fun night where people are happy to mingle, move around between inside and balcony (especially during the fireworks) and enjoy the freedom that Fancy dress often creates.

 Q. Can we bring children?

A. No, the upstairs party is 18+ only. The beer garden is a Family friendly event and bookings can be made online.

Q. How do the drink tickets work?

A. The Drink tickets are designed to speed everything up and avoid our customers waiting in line. Just walk up to the bar ask for your chosen beer, wine or cocktail and hand staff the required tickets. No wait for the EFTPOS and no need to carry any cash. Tickets can be pre-purchased during the booking phase and provided to you on arrival. Tickets can also be purchased on the night should you need more or did not pre-purchase.

Q. Do I have to use drink tickets?

A. Yes. Access to EFTPOS and cash facilities will be limited on the night and our staff may not have access to them. Pre-purchase your tickets or grab them on the night and don’t worry about anything else except what drink to choose.

Q. What do you mean by “Cocktail food”?

A. We are looking forward to providing the same amazing food that you have come to know and love from Aqua Blue, however the way we provide it will be a little different this time around. Over the course of the night our wonderful staff will be offering a variety of hot and cold canapes. These “finger foods” will come to you but we will also have a large Grazing table allowing you to choose what you want to eat and when you want to eat it……..Bon appetit.

Q. Will you cater for dietary requirements?

A. We will, where possible, continue to cater for dietary issues as we normally do. Please let us know at the time of booking so we can cater accordingly. All foods will be clearly marked allowing customers to make informed choices. For any unusual or specific instructions please contact the restaurant prior to the night so arrangements can be made.

Q. Do I have to wear fancy dress?

A. No, fancy dress is not compulsory…..BUT….hopefully the offer of a free drink on arrival for all customers in Fancy dress might help persuade you. We really hope you will dress up and help make the night fun. There is something about Fancy dress that always seems to create a fantastic and fun environment, not just on the night, but for days and even years to come. We have kept the theme as broad as possible (Movie, TV or book character) which will hopefully help with choosing a character. Fancy dress is as simple or as complex as you wish to make it but if you are having difficulties deciding then maybe Mr Google can help.

Q. May I leave the restaurant and come back in?

A. Yes, you can leave and come back. When you arrive, you will be given a unique, non-transferable wrist band that security will use to allow re-entry.
