Secure invitation to Brisbane's most exclusive speakeasy dining & offline poker lounge

To enter Knave & Kitchen is to step behind a nondescript door into a world of dark velvet panels, metallic trims, and the low murmur of an offline poker lounge. Every reservation is treated as a private introduction to our speakeasy dining room and hidden card room.

Use the confidential request form to coordinate a secret dining booth, a leather poker table at our card lounge, or an evening that flows seamlessly between both. All experiences are chip-based and focused on theatre, conversation, and classical card play.
