1339 Main Road
Eltham
Venue type: Function Venue
Strada Bar and Lounge is the function and dining centrepiece of the Eltham Gateway Hotel and Conference Centre, sitting at 1339 Main Road, Eltham, about 40 minutes from Melbourne CBD and 30 minutes from the Yarra Valley.
The hotel itself is a full-service property with accommodation on site, conference rooms, a restaurant, and Strada as the dedicated bar and lounge.
Location wise, Eltham sits at the edge of Melbourne's north-east, surrounded by tree-lined streets and gardens. It doesn't feel suburban, so there's a bit of a retreat quality to it, which is exactly why the hotel draws conference groups and function bookings alongside locals.
Strada operates seven days a week for private functions, and the food is made in-house. The space caters for breakfasts through to late-night events, and the function side runs alongside a strong conference operation, so the staff know how to handle volume and logistics, not just social events.
