How to Plan Your Gold Coast Christmas Party

Listen closely … can you hear the jingle bells? No? That’s ok – we get it … this year has been so busy, you’ve barely had a chance to catch your breath, let along listen for distant sounds from heaven (or, ahem, the North Pole), right?!

With the festive season creeping ever closer, it is time to get excited for all that Christmas cheer, with end-of-year shindigs already underway.

 If organising your work or social group’s Christmas party is still looming on your to-do list, Teavine House offers a range of options to make planning the perfect Gold Coast high tea celebration a breeze.

 Seating is available for groups of up to 30 guests in our al fresco private areas, or for larger groups, private hire of the charming tea rooms can be arranged.

Planning your high tea event is easy, with a per head charge for traditional high tea of $42 which includes a selection of housemade patisserie sweets, hot savoury canapes, ribbon sandwiches, and our signature mini scones served with fresh cream and jam. The cost includes one hot or cold beverage per guest (artisan tea, barista coffee, milkshakes or soft drink, etc). Please note, our venue is not licenced.

High tea is served on traditional tiered stands, adorned with such sweet delights as rich chocolate brownie, matcha creme cup and lemon coconut slice; with some of our favourite savoury treats including a filled mini croissant, blue cheese and caramelised onion tart, and vegetarian frittata.

For those looking for a luncheon celebration, enquire about our three-course function menu ($39.50 per person). Available for groups of more than 10, the menu includes entrée platters of bread with Mediterranean dipping oils, followed by your choice of two main meals served as an alternate drop, then finishing with a selection of high tea petite cakes and slices, plus tea or coffee.

Vegan and gluten-free options are available – please advise of any dietary requirements when final numbers are confirmed in the week of your booking.

 Just can’t wait for Christmas dinner with all the trimmings? Teavine House offers a traditional festive meal of roast turkey with cranberry sauce and roast vegetables, also available for end-of-year functions.

 We have two al fresco dining spaces for groups of between 10 and 30 guests.

 The private garden courtyard seats between 20 and 30 guests, and features a beautiful setting under the shelter of our French-styled canopy with white drapes. The area has its own small lawn.

For groups of between 10 and 20 guests, the semi-private covered patio overlooking the front gardens is a great choice.

There is no additional venue hire charge for either of the private areas.

Your high tea setting includes a long table dressed with lace tablecloth and fresh flowers in tea pots, and of course beauties from our extensive collection of vintage tea sets for each guest. Beaded silk glass covers complete the look.
