Why Choose Electra
Why guests choose Electra for milestone functions, intimate booth dining, and central business lunches.
Versatile Multi-Room Layouts for Milestone Gatherings
Multi-room architectural heritage allows hosts to allocate dedicated breakout areas, such as pairing an energetic DJ and celebrant space with a separate quiet room for presentations or families.
We had one room where the DJ/celebrant was and then utilised the other room as a quiet room with a slide show of the bride and groom and light music for those who needed a moment or parents settling young children.
Kayla Scali Frictionless Group and Celebration Bookings
Accommodating large group reservations without mandating rigid set menus or holding card deposits ensures stress-free party coordination.
Electra House was easy to book, even for a large group. Such a beautiful venue, awesome vibes and aesthetics!
Sophie Maclay-Ross Elevated Plush Booth Dining Experience
Raised plush booth seating tucked within an art deco interior creates a relaxing, elevated space to unwind with craft drinks and background music.
Really relaxing way to chill anyday of the week with the dj in one of the booths that sit up higher than the rest of the room.
Tiny Intimate Date-Night Atmosphere
Date-night guests enjoy rich, creative share plates and mains in an intimate setting backed by warm lighting and knowledgeable waitstaff.
The green walls and decor mixed with warm lighting was beautiful and the booths were intimate and comfortable.
Zoe Mezzino Central Setting for Workgroups and Business Lunches
Conveniently positioned on King William Street, the venue provides quiet daytime settings suitable for client lunches, workgroup dining, and presentations.
The ambience was great and it was nice and quiet for a business meeting. The food was really great!
Meli Ling Tailored Refreshments for Professional Daytime Meetings
Sophisticated daytime dining accommodates corporate guests with varied midday fare alongside curated non-alcoholic mocktails.
Great vibe and delicious meal. Had a lunch meeting there and it was fantastic. If you don’t like day drinking, lovely mocktails are available too.

The pork belly was not overall sweet, had that nice stickiness from the sauce and cooked well so it fell off the kebab.

Jia Beef Burger
Impressed with the beef burger which was slightly pink in the centre as befits a gourmet burger and juicy, but without juices leaking messily everywhere.

Beyond the menu
Thoughtful layout options, tailored hospitality, and flexible dining features that elevate your visit.

For second-floor milestone events and weddings, multi-room suites allow partitioning an adjacent space into a dedicated quiet retreat with a slideshow and gentle music for resting guests and parents settling young children.
Early Arrival Hospitality & Coffee
Early arrivals for university or corporate functions are greeted with thoughtful touches like complimentary coffee while waiting for their event to begin.
Elevated Booth Seating Experience
Elevated booth seating sits higher than the general floor plan, pairing art deco interiors with plush, cozy booths for intimate dining alongside background DJ sets.
Frictionless Large-Group Booking Terms
Accommodating large gatherings such as birthday parties of 20 without obligating guests to commit to strict set menus or upfront card pre-authorizations.
Before you head over
Practical advice on reservations, portions, and timing for your visit to Electra.
Flexible Large Group Bookings
Unlike venues requiring strict pre-authorisations or set menus, group dining here allows a la carte flexibility even for parties up to 20.
Pace Your Portions and Share Plates
Portions for both entrees and mains run notably large, making share plates and starters substantial enough to share across the table before over-ordering mains.
Time Your Visit for Quiet or DJ Vibes
Weekday nights provide a quiet atmosphere ideal for dates or business chats, whereas weekend evenings bring louder DJ sets and energetic booth seating.
