Dinner meets the card room

Lanter Nandlot brings an Australian bistro table into the atmosphere of a live, physical card room. This English-language Australian restaurant and offline poker destination combines a premium bistro with a dedicated card room, poker lounge and poker tables, so dinner, dealer-led table action and easy conversation can belong to one unhurried evening.

Australian dishes sit alongside hosted sessions, dealers and seats for casual and experienced players, from social table action to Texas Hold’em tournament nights.

An evening, your way

Choose your pace

01

Before play

Settle in before Texas Hold’em

A dinner before a tournament night gives guests time to settle into the room before dealer-led Texas Hold’em begins. Australian dishes and steaks create a composed seated meal, then the transition toward a hosted session can feel natural rather than rushed. It is a simple way to make the bistro and the tournament night part of the same occasion.

02

At the felt

Stay close to the table action

Share plates and burgers make the social table a natural place for conversation between poker hands. The dining energy remains close to the poker lounge without needing to dictate the room’s pace: guests can gather, watch the cards and chips move across the felt, or join the poker tables as casual players in an approachable setting.

03

After cards

Finish in the lounge

Dessert, cocktails and wine extend the night after the cards are gathered, whether guests played or simply absorbed the lounge atmosphere. The card room welcomes casual and experienced players, while dining-only guests can stay for the warm social energy that follows a hand. There is room for the meal, the game and the conversation around both.

Card-room companion

From bistro table to card room

The card room is a hosted, physical space where dinner can lead naturally to offline poker participation. Lanter Nandlot brings together a dedicated card room, poker lounge and poker tables with hosted sessions for casual and experienced players. Guests may dine, join a session, or simply enjoy the surrounding atmosphere as the evening shifts between plates, conversation and play.

Offline Poker
Physical poker played together in the dedicated card room, with people, cards and a shared table at the centre of the experience.
Dealers
Hosted sessions include dealers who guide the table flow and give the room a clear, composed rhythm.
Blinds
Blinds are part of the Texas Hold’em table structure, helping frame the progress of a hosted game without taking focus from the social room.
Buy-in
Buy-in refers to joining a seat in a hosted session. It is practical participation language for guests choosing to take a place at the table.
Seats
Seat participation welcomes casual and experienced players who want a clear place within the physical table experience.

High roller atmosphere

For guests seeking a more elevated room mood, the high roller table is a premium table experience within the same refined social setting. It is another way to experience the card room’s polished, intimate character.

The late-night pour

Cocktails and wine

Cocktails and wine provide a considered drinks route alongside bistro dining and the low-lit energy of the poker lounge. Their place is not to hurry an evening along, but to sit comfortably with conversation, warm timber and the quietly changing mood around the card room. Guests can shape an evening around dinner, socialising or the table action beyond it.

Cocktails for the social table

Cocktails can sit beside share plates and the changing rhythm of cards, chips and table talk. The room keeps these physical details understated: a glass on timber, green felt nearby, and a poker lounge that feels made for guests who want to stay close to the social current.

Wine for a longer dinner

Wine creates a slower accompaniment to steaks, Australian dishes and the conversation that follows a tournament night. It supports the measured bistro side of the venue, before or after Texas Hold’em, without asking every guest to participate at a table.

A longer dinner has its own kind of table action.

Dessert and a final pour keep the evening open for guests lingering after a dealer-led session or a relaxed bistro meal. Both poker participants and dining guests can remain part of the social atmosphere.

Evening pathways

A menu for the way you gather

Choose an evening that starts with dinner, turns toward a group table, or follows the focused energy of a tournament night.

Dinner-led

Dinner first, cards nearby

For a dinner-led evening, Australian dishes and steaks offer a composed start before guests move into the poker lounge or stay to watch table action. Dining guests do not need to play to enjoy the bistro atmosphere; the room is equally suited to a focused meal, a gradual evening and conversation with the felt nearby.

Group-led

Share the table action

For a group gathering, burgers and share plates keep food in the centre of a more conversational night around poker tables. Cards and chips can remain an unobtrusive part of the room’s atmosphere while guests settle into social table action, bistro conversation and the easy movement between food and the poker lounge.

Tournament-led

Stay for the tournament night

For a tournament night, cocktails, wine and desserts help frame the social moments before and after dealer-led Texas Hold’em play. The rhythm of blinds belongs to the table, while the bistro gives guests space to gather around the wider evening: a meal before play, conversation after, or a relaxed place to take in the room.

Session routes

When the room turns to play

Poker nights and tournaments are hosted physical sessions in the dedicated card room, with dealers, blinds, cards, chips and seats framing the table experience. Buy-in is used as seat participation language for guests joining a session. For practical format information, continue from the menu to the dedicated poker pages rather than relying on a calendar or availability display here.

Explore each format before deciding how you want your evening to unfold.

Poker Nights

Poker Nights are the route for social offline poker, table action and guests seeking a hosted lounge atmosphere. The poker tables welcome casual and experienced players who want the room’s physical, conversational energy.
