Explore the Card LoungeWelcome
Card Haven is Sydney's premier destination for those who appreciate the craft of fine grilling and the social art of offline poker. It is a place where the warmth of a charcoal grill meets the quiet focus of a private card room, creating an evening that feels both indulgent and genuinely connected.
We believe that great food and great company are the foundations of an unforgettable evening. Every cut is selected for quality, every table is prepared for thoughtful play, and every detail is designed to keep the experience physical, social, and free from screens.
From the sizzle of the grill to the shuffle of cards, each moment is shaped by warm, moody lighting, dark timber interiors, and attentive service. Regular poker nights and a curated beverage list complete an atmosphere built for refined indulgence.
The Grillhouse
A custom charcoal grill sits at the heart of our kitchen, turning premium produce into dishes with depth, smoke, and a careful edge of flame.
Our kitchen is centered around a custom charcoal grill, where premium cuts are cooked to perfection over open flames. Dry-aged steaks, lamb, and seasonal vegetables are finished with house-made sauces in an open kitchen concept that brings the craft to your table.
From our famous tomahawk steak for two to charred octopus with romesco and wood-fired vegetables, each dish is crafted to highlight natural flavour and the honest character of the grill.
An extensive wine list and classic cocktails complement the menu, with a focus on Australian producers. Signature cocktails carry a smoky twist, and thoughtful non-alcoholic options are always available.
