Barkers Cafe is located in the hallowed grounds of the VU Whitten Oval, home to the Western Bulldog Football Club in Footscray, in Melbourner's inner western suburbs, a short drive from the central business district.
With a choice of room options for a function or event, including exclusive use for groups over 50, Barkers Cafe offers a venue with a difference for any birthday celebration, product launch, photographic shoot, business meeting, corporate event and everything in between.
Barkers Cafe itself can be hired with or without the expansive outdoor terrace area which can extend the scope of your function space for larger scale events. The Executive Boardroom offers a smaller more intimate space for conducting business and the change rooms are hired together with a complementary meeting room.
