Roombas is a family run wedding and function venue located in Gisborne South. Seating up to 130 guests, this stunning venue is the perfect place to put your front-of-house hospitality skills to the test and gain valuable industry experience.

ABOUT THE VENUE:

The building was constructed in 1974 from bluestone originally used in the streets of Port Melbourne. Roomba’s renovated and refurbished the venue in February 2012, creating the perfect setting for a modern, country style function. With sleek black bars in the classic foyer area, and a touch of French provincial fittings surrounding the warm and cosy fireplace, it makes the perfect back drop for a special occasion. Hone your dinner service and cocktail service skills in style!

From the owner Vicki:
"We originally got into the industry due to my daughter Simone finishing her Double Bachelor degree in hospitality & tourism, my husband Tony’s extensive knowledge in the liquor industry with over 40 years experience & my natural flare for the love of food and design. With all of these factors put together we have created a unique little business that is very busy. Being a family we care about our customers who we also treat as family."
