Eastlake Gungahlin

Eastlake Gungahlin combines a bar and bistro with the community connection of the Eastlake Football Club. The club is marking 100 years, and membership links the venue to a broader Eastlake group with three clubs across Canberra. For visitors in Gungahlin, it offers a straightforward place to meet for a meal, a drink or one of the venue’s regular promotions.

The bistro serves lunch and dinner seven days a week, with lunch listed from 12pm to 2pm and dinner from 5.30pm to 8.30pm. Weekday lunch specials run from Monday to Friday, although the available selection changes and is displayed on the in-venue specials boards. The website also highlights recurring bistro promotions including Sunday Roast, Steak Night and Pizza Night, giving members and regulars different reasons to return.

Membership brings a 10 per cent discount on full-priced bistro and bar items, along with weekday member happy hour from 4pm to 6pm, selected tap schooners and house wines at set member prices, loyalty rewards and access to exclusive promotions. The venue also caters for group occasions, listing birthdays, conferences, weddings, sports teams, celebrations of life and Christmas functions among its event options. It suits locals looking for a casual club setting, groups planning a function and diners who value member benefits, rather than a highly formal night out.
