Due to open in 2022, The Grounds of South Eveleigh promises a state-of-the art coffee roastery where guests can engage in the entire coffee-making process and a grand, open space that is reminiscent of a dreamy French Chateau wedding venue.
Coffee roastery
The roastery will offer an immersive experience as coffee lovers will not only get to sip a cup of their favourite brews but also learn how it’s done, right from roasting to brewing.
A passionate team of baristas will lead the behind-the-scenes tours and workshops that will be available for everyone – from the everyday guest with a curiosity for coffee, to the wholesaler sourcing their favourite selections.
In addition to coffee, there will be options for a casual breakfast or lunch, too. The menu draws inspiration from canteens of the former railway workshops where South Eveleigh stands.
Event space
As with The Grounds in Alexandria, there will be plenty of plants and greenery which will soften its modern industrial architecture style. It features high ceilings adorned by the captivating light of industrial chandeliers.
With a seating capacity for up to 350 guests, there’s enough room to invite all your close friends and family to celebrate life’s special moments.
“Time stands still, as you are immersed in the sheer magnificence of The Eveleigh – it’s almost like a scene from a fairytale that takes your imagination somewhere else,” The Grounds stated in its website.
The events place will be open Monday to Sunday with dates to be announced in 2022. If you want to be one of the first to host a celebration in The Grounds of Eveleigh, visit their website to learn more about their event packages once they become available.
