Ashburton Bowls Club is a vibrant and inclusive sports club located in Melbourne. The club offers a range of facilities and services for members and visitors to enjoy.

One of the highlights of Ashburton Bowls Club is the option for barefoot bowling. This is a fun and social activity that allows players to enjoy a casual game of bowls with friends. Whether you're a seasoned bowler or a beginner, barefoot bowling is a great way to relax and have a good time.

In addition to barefoot bowling, Ashburton Bowls Club is also a fantastic venue for corporate functions. The main function room is versatile and can accommodate various events, including corporate meetings, birthday parties, weddings, and more. The separate bar area ensures easy access to drinks and refreshments for guests.

The club provides high-quality music equipment, including iPod, USB, and smart TV connectivity, allowing guests to play their preferred playlists or display presentations during events. The PA system with hands-free microphones ensures clear and audible announcements or speeches.

The availability of Wi-Fi allows guests to stay connected and share their experience on social media platforms. The function room has a capacity of 200 people for cocktail-style or standing functions and 120 people for seated functions. Wheelchair accessibility is also provided to ensure that everyone can easily access and enjoy the facilities.

Ashburton Bowls Club's kitchen is well-equipped to handle various cooking needs. With two ovens, a large gas stove, a pie warmer, a microwave oven, a fridge, a freezer, a microwave, and a commercial dishwasher, the kitchen can cater to a range of events. Crockery and cutlery are available for over 120 people.

While the club currently does not serve food on the premises without prior arrangement, there are several catering options available. Customers can choose to outsource their catering, self-cater using the kitchen facilities, hire one of the club's BBQs, or utilise one of the preferred caterers. Food trucks are also a popular choice for catering purposes. The club aims to provide flexibility and options to meet customers' unique catering needs.

The bar at Ashburton Bowls Club has a restricted licence to serve a variety of alcoholic beverages, including beers, wines, ciders, spirits, and soft drinks. The club offers bar staff to cater to events, and guests have the option to purchase drinks individually or set up a bar tab. If setting up a bar tab, the club requires the guest's driver's licence and credit card to ensure responsible alcohol consumption and prevent unauthorised charges.

All drinks must be purchased from the club's bar, and the club appreciates cooperation and understanding in adhering to this policy. For further questions or to discuss event requirements, visitors are encouraged to contact the club manager, who will be more than happy to assist.
