About
The design of this beautifully constructed complex draws its inspiration from rural buildings of yesteryear. At Oaklands our team understands that your event is to be an exceptional experience and the flexibility of our venue offers exactly the degree of formality you desire. You may opt for an informal garden wedding or an extravagantly staged event, an intimate party through to a gathering for 240 guests. Our facilities offer a warm and inviting country feel with all the necessary modern comforts and details. Oaklands offers you variable configurations to accommodate your gathering. Our Main Hall with tiered seating area can cater for up to 120 guests in restaurant style whilst still allowing room for dancing. With our operable walls open we can cater for up to 240 guests. Our facilities offer you the flexibility of large stand up cocktail style events or more intimate seated functions whilst still leaving ample room for your guests to mingle and enjoy the occasion. Our smaller Lounge/Dining indoor foyer can cater for smaller intimate sit-down functions of up to 40 people. This room is also perfect for a more casual function or small party. Both rooms have access to our wonderful dry stone open fireplace which will add a wonderful ambience to your function - summer or winter. The Event Centre Gardens are perfect for canapés & drinks pre-reception & will cater for a casual or formal garden/cocktail wedding for around 60 people. Our Historic Homestead is available for wedding ceremonies and guest accommodation

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Not only is the venue charming- there is an atmosphere that permeates the place, partly coming from the staff. They waited on all of us with grace and care. It was beautiful to be there. We were served finger food that was truly memorable - all home-made of course. Yummy sausage rolls, little mushroom bites, ribbon sandwiches generously filled with traditional and unusual tastes like chicken and pistachio, Thai chicken patties, and more. Then we helped ourselves to freshly made scones with jam and cream. (Oaklands make the best scones!) Thanks to the staff for being so caring.

Brewery, gift shop, nursery, art gallery, cafe and animals. We arrived early and checked out the gift and art shops before walking out the back to see the ostrich. The staff took great pride in explaining the specials in addition to the menu offerings. I chose the Beef Peper Pie with Sweet Potato. Big serve with plenty of chips and salad. The pie filling wasn't over peppered and the beef chunks were tender. Tasty food and friendly service.

Stopped in to try out the brewery, not a bad drop to be had but during our visit it was impossible to get served as it was so busy.

Always nice to visit this place, whether it's to go out & listen to live music or just catch up with some friends for lunch, a cuppa or a few cold bevvies. Great atmosphere and easy to find.

we were told to go and we were not disappointed. Oaklands Event Centre is fascinating. it has a fine restaurant, gift shop and a well stocked nursery and hidden I amongst this meandering is the Oyster Bar and Brewery. The oysters are local and the best I have tasted. The beer is a must for the discerning taster. loved the experience and we will be back again in the next few days before we travel home to Victoria.

We stopped off here on the way back from Eden. Unfortunately we called in later in the afternoon and they were closing the brewery for a private function at 4.00pm so we didn't have long to look around. We walked over to the brewery so that we could try their beers and we chose two different blends and sat outside to enjoy them, they were both good but because everybody was busy setting up we didn't feel comfortable sitting there for long. We noticed on the way out that they have a cheese platter which we all enjoy so we made a few inquiries about it thinking we might call back for lunch one day and then walked back to the car stopping at the art gallery and nursery to have a quick look around on the way out. It is a great complex and we believe there is a children's farm there so we thought it would be a good place to come back with family. The brewery had a good menu on offer and the prices seemed reasonable, we would return here for a meal next time.

This place is excellent for a wedding venue, had 120 guest and still space for more, the atmosphere of the place is great, set up like and old style barn with artifacts all around. The exposed timbers are great, the service and food were excellent and the events manager of the complex could not do enough for us. Being local, I would recommend this centre to anybody for any type of function, the centre is very relaxing and has atmosphere, not like the sterile feeling of the other venues in the area. Would Recommend to anyone.

Just driving past, saw all the cars in the car park so we drove in. Best decision I've made. Great lunch from the cafe, good booze from the bar. Plenty of room inside and out. Good friendly service. Excellent "live" music. and a small animal farm for the kids to see. Plenty of parking.
