Club that’s Deer to our hearts

When a venue has been revamped it’s often like visiting somewhere new but with the safety net of knowing the same reliable team and delicious food are available. That’s what’s happened at Deer Park Club in Deer Park.

“We invite everyone to come and experience all that Deer Park Club has to offer, including the 200 plus-seat bistro overlooking the manicured bowling green; two-storey play zone; new TAB and sports theatre; two large function rooms; weekend entertainment and courtesy buses,” general manager David Thompson says.

“The club is now not just the leading entertainment venue in the western suburbs, but the whole of Melbourne.”

The family and community-orientated club has something for everyone. Whether they’re after a game of lawn bowls or looking to join a fishing, golf or pool club, there are plenty of ways to meet new friends and enjoy spending time with old ones. And the kids will stay occupied with free entertainment from Friday to Sunday.

“With the Spring Racing Carnival upon us we invite visitors into our sports bar to watch the races on our big screens,” David says.

Popular times to visit the club include Wednesdays, with $12 parmas and barefoot bowls; Mondays, when kids eat free (conditions apply); and Sundays there’s a three-course carvery for $15.90.

“Our family-friendly bistro is always popular and with Christmas functions on the agenda we advise diners to book early,” David says.

The venue has been a ‘go to’ place for locals since its establishment in 1957 when it began as the ICI Club, founded by the ICI company (now Orica) as a social hub for its employees.

David has more than 20 years’ experience in hospitality and management and leads an experienced and knowledgeable team.
