Responsible Service of Alcohol Policy

We aim to provide all patrons with a safe, friendly and fun atmosphere.

We encourage those who choose to drink alcohol to do it responsibly.

Unfortunately, some people tend to over-indulge and can become unruly / disruptive in some scenarios. This type of behaviour is unacceptable as it may hinder the enjoyment and safety of others guests, resulting in serious consequences. As a licensed venue, we have a responsibility to help minimize this risk to individuals, our staff and to the community.

We support the Responsible Service of Alcohol policy by use of the following strategies:

1. Develop food and beverage packages that encourage people to eat when drinking
2. Serve drinks in standard or recognizable sizes
3. Ensure that drinking water is freely available at all times and encouraged by staff
4. Request proof of age
5. Training of staff in responsible service requirements and how to refuse service
6. patrons that maybe approaching intoxication
7. Price low alcohol and soft drinks attractively to encourage their purchase
8. Discourage rapid or excessive consumption of alcohol
9. Deny entry or service to anyone who is intoxicated
10. All necessary RSA signage will be visible to both patrons and bar staff
