What’s on

Tonight at Kitchen Gippsland

Kitchen Gippsland is a physical Southbank night-house where seasonal Victorian dining, artisan drinks and a fully licensed offline casino floor share one considered address. This is a guide to the house’s regular rhythm, not a dated event calendar: arrive for a meal, settle in at the craft bar, or plan an informed casino-floor visit where appropriate. Restaurant reservations are available through OpenTable.

The regular rhythm

A house rhythm, not a fixed calendar

There is no invented programme to chase here. The house is organised around recurring hospitality moments, giving a planned visit enough structure without pretending every evening follows a show schedule. Choose the part of the house that suits your timing, then use the practical details below to make the visit your own.

01 · Dining

Come for lunch or dinner

The restaurant is open from 12:00 PM – 11:00 PM, making it a natural starting point for a Southbank plan. Seasonal Victorian dining keeps the focus on the table and the season rather than a fixed event format. If dining is central to your visit, you can reserve ahead through OpenTable without assuming a particular menu or table availability.

02 · Bar

Stay for the bar

The craft bar brings artisan drinks into the same dark, urban-industrial house. It can sit alongside a meal or offer a measured pause during an evening out, with the room’s charcoal surfaces and warm practical light doing more work than spectacle. No special night or entertainment schedule is implied; it is simply part of the venue’s regular hospitality.

03 · 21+ only

Continue to the floor, where appropriate

The casino floor is a separate, age-restricted part of the physical venue, open daily from 10:00 AM until late. It includes live table games and electronic gaming. Entry is limited to people aged 21 and over; before arriving, read the venue’s House Rules & Responsible Play information for entry and conduct guidance.

Seasonal Victorian dining

Dining at Kitchen Gippsland is a reason to make time for the table before, during or after an evening in Southbank. The restaurant serves seasonal Victorian dining from 12:00 PM – 11:00 PM, in a working room where kitchen movement, warm light and conversation are allowed to set the pace. The focus is an unforced meal in a physical house that also holds a craft bar and casino floor, without treating those parts as a package.

Book the table that suits your visit

OpenTable is for restaurant reservations. It does not reserve casino-floor access or change the venue’s entry conditions, so consult house rules separately if the casino floor is part of your plans.

Book a Table
01

A considered start to the night

Dining is an intentional part of the house, not a generic add-on. A table, the nearby craft bar and the warm activity of the kitchen can shape a calm beginning without suggesting a bundled progression through the venue.

02

Plan around the restaurant hours

Use 12:00 PM – 11:00 PM as a clear dining anchor, then leave the rest of the evening open. For fuller arrival information, visit Location & Contact.

03

Keep the visit clear

Restaurant reservations are handled through OpenTable, while casino-floor conditions remain separate. That distinction keeps a dinner plan straightforward and avoids assumptions about access elsewhere in the house.

At the bar

Artisan drinks in a working room

The craft bar is part of Kitchen Gippsland’s dark, urban-industrial hospitality setting: charcoal masonry, smoked glass, practical warm light and an attentive room rather than a staged spectacle. Come for artisan drinks alongside dinner, or let the bar provide a pause during an evening in Southbank. The point is the physical room and the people in it, not a promise of a particular list, tasting, release or promotional night.

A place to gather, not a spectacle. Conversation, considered service and the architecture of the room are allowed to carry the evening without flashy entertainment competing for attention.

Plan dining first when a table matters. Restaurant bookings are made through OpenTable; this bar information does not promise a separate reservation.

Casino-floor hours

Open daily from 10:00 AM until late

The casino floor is part of the physical, offline venue and includes live table games and electronic gaming. These are practical access details, not a claim about financial outcomes, odds or entertainment promises. Eligible visitors can use the hours to plan an in-person visit responsibly.

Before arrival

Read the conditions before you arrive

Entry, conduct and responsible-gaming guidance are provided in full on the dedicated House Rules & Responsible Play page. Read that guidance before including the casino floor in your plans.

Dining

A table for dinner

For seasonal Victorian dining, use the restaurant hours of 12:00 PM – 11:00 PM as your planning point and reserve through OpenTable. The Dining & Bar page gives the broader hospitality context without promising a particular menu or table type.

Craft bar

A drink at the craft bar

For artisan drinks and the atmosphere of the house, explore the craft bar as part of the broader Dining & Bar offer. It is an invitation to plan a general visit, not a separate bar reservation or a promise of a promoted experience.

21+ information

Your next step

Reserve dinner, then make your evening your own

For seasonal Victorian dining, OpenTable is the clearest way to reserve a restaurant table and begin a planned Southbank visit. The booking link opens in a new tab. It does not promise availability, reserve the craft bar separately or provide casino-floor access.

Casino-floor access is separate from restaurant booking and is strictly limited to people aged 21 and over.
