Pre-Show Dining & Functions
Enjoy a drink or snack pre-show!
The Frankston Arts Centre bar is centrally located in the main theatre building and opens 1 hour prior to performances.
Dine with us to complete the ultimate theatre experience: over the bar (light meals), or a pre-show 2-course dinner (available at selected shows).
Beat the rush at interval! Remember to avoid the queues by pre-ordering your interval drinks and snacks. Simply fill out an order form and pay at the bar prior to the performance - your refreshments will be waiting near the bar for you to collect at interval.
Over The Bar
Enjoy a quick bite, or a glass of wine or beer before the show. Choose from a range of seasonal antipasto or cheese platters to share, or try some of our various faster food options. Our menus change regularly to showcase local seasonal produce - the perfect accompaniment to a fabulous show, all conveniently located under the one roof!
The kitchen and bar opens 60 minutes before each show commences, so why not plan to arrive early and take advantage of the opportunity to relax and enjoy your pre-show refreshments.
