What People Are Saying

The staff were amazing. So friendly and helpful. Your facilities were also amazing – especially the BBQ with all the tools and cutlery, and the proximity of the eating area to the rink. We had the best night and very grateful for all your service. Thank you!

This was our 2nd year end of year event with our team and loved it even more. It was also great to see some of the same staff from last year, you must look after them well as they are great, well done and thank you!

The entire team were very professional, nothing was too much trouble, and our team had a wonderful time. I have held many functions at this venue over many years, and it’s one of my favorite venues. A hidden gem in the middle of the city.

Our Club has been going strong since 1866.

The City of Melbourne Bowls Club (CoMBC) was founded as the West Melbourne Bowling Club on 18 August 1866 at the Sabloniere Hotel, which stood on the corner of A’Beckett and Queen Streets, Melbourne until 1972. The bowling green was adjacent to the hotel.
