Terms and Conditions

These terms are intended to guide visitors using The Fortune Garden website, making an enquiry, attending the restaurant or planning an occasion with us. They are relevant to dining visits, social evenings, private gatherings and corporate formats, as well as the in-person card experiences described on this site.

Where an occasion is arranged by one person for a group, these terms are relevant both to attendees and, where appropriate, to the person coordinating the occasion. Visitors are expected to observe reasonable venue and host directions that relate to their visit, shared spaces and the selected format.

Please read these terms before making plans. They are a general visitor-facing guide and do not replace details that may be relevant to a particular arrangement.

The Fortune Garden is a restaurant where dining and social table occasions can sit alongside tactile, face-to-face offline poker. Each experience takes place physically at the venue; participation is in person and is not remote.

• Dining occasions are restaurant visits shaped around food, conversation and the atmosphere of the room.
• Card lounge and card room experiences are physical shared-space formats that may use poker tables, cards and host guidance.
• Hosted poker sessions and in-person card evenings are face-to-face offline poker occasions arranged around the table.

Format details can differ between occasions. The setting, sequence and practical arrangements relevant to your visit should be considered with the information provided for that particular occasion.

Our website introduces The Fortune Garden’s restaurant atmosphere, dining occasions and offline poker formats. It is designed to help visitors understand the kinds of experiences that may be explored, rather than to set out every detail of a particular visit or event.

Information that matters to a specific arrangement may need confirmation with the venue. This can include details connected with the date, group, preferred format or requested occasion, where those details are relevant.

Please note: Website material should be read with any information supplied for the occasion you intend to attend.

Where a booking, reservation or event arrangement is made, the venue may need information appropriate to the selected occasion. This may include examples such as the intended date, group requirements, chosen format and any requested arrangements. The details relevant to one dining visit may not be the same as those relevant to a private gathering or corporate format.

The person arranging an occasion should provide accurate and current information where it is requested, and should review details supplied for the arrangement. This helps establish a shared understanding of the planned restaurant experience without assuming that every format uses the same process.

1. Check that information relating to the intended occasion is understood before attendance.
2. Share relevant updates about the group or requested format where practical.
3. Communicate occasion-specific details to attendees where they need to know them.

Plans can change. If a visitor or organiser needs to alter an intended visit or arranged occasion, they should communicate that change as early as practical. Any available options will depend on the relevant arrangement and on confirmation from the venue.

No general cancellation, change or rescheduling outcome is stated in these terms because details have not been supplied for every format. Please refer to the information relevant to your specific arrangement and any venue confirmation that applies to it.

Specific arrangements may carry details that are not visible in this general document.

Private gatherings and corporate formats are distinct from an ordinary individual restaurant visit because they involve an organiser and a shared group occasion. The Fortune Garden asks organisers and attendees to approach those occasions with clear communication, reasonable conduct and attention to the arrangements that have been discussed.

1. Organisers should help attendees understand the purpose and practical shape of the occasion.
2. Attendees should respect the dining room, card lounge, card room and other shared venue spaces.
3. Everyone should have regard to event-specific information supplied for the planned gathering or format.

These expectations are intended to support an orderly and welcoming occasion. They do not replace any particular details that may be relevant to the group’s arrangement.

Offline poker at The Fortune Garden is hosted, face-to-face play conducted around physical poker tables in the card lounge or card room as part of an in-person restaurant occasion. Hosted poker sessions and in-person card evenings are social table experiences, shaped by the room, the people present and practical host guidance.

Cards, table surfaces and chips are tactile materials used at the table. Any chips used in these experiences are non-financial table props. Visitors should follow reasonable directions from hosts and the venue so that the session can move comfortably alongside the dining environment and remain welcoming to everyone at the table.

Visitors taking part in an in-person card evening are expected to contribute to a considerate shared setting. This applies across the dining room, card lounge and card room.

• Follow reasonable host and venue guidance during a session.
• Treat fellow guests, hosts and staff with respect.
• Use shared physical space with care and awareness of others.
• Avoid conduct that disrupts the dining occasion or orderly participation at the table.

These expectations support the social character of face-to-face play and the restaurant setting around it. They are not intended to describe every possible circumstance; practical directions may be given where needed for the smooth running of an occasion.

Poker tables, cards, chips, furnishings and dining settings are physical parts of the experience and should be treated with reasonable care. Visitors should take notice of practical instructions that help preserve the table, maintain a comfortable shared space and support the flow of a hosted session.

Hosts may guide guests on the handling or placement of table materials where appropriate. This is a practical part of a face-to-face card occasion and helps keep the focus on conversation, dining and respectful play.

Table materials: Cards and chips are physical session materials; chips are non-financial table props.

Visitors should take reasonable care of their personal belongings while at The Fortune Garden. The restaurant environment may include dining settings, shared lounge areas and physical table experiences, so keeping personal items attended to is a sensible part of any visit.

The venue’s responsibility in relation to an individual visit is subject to applicable law and the circumstances involved. Nothing in this general statement is intended to create a blanket exclusion of responsibility or to replace any rights that may apply in a particular situation.

These terms may be updated from time to time as approved venue and legal information becomes available. Visitors should refer to the current published version together with any details relevant to their own dining occasion, private gathering, corporate format or in-person card evening.

Because no exact change process or effective date has been supplied, this document does not state when a revision takes effect or how it applies to an existing arrangement. Occasion-specific information should be considered alongside the current terms.

Review status: final approved venue and legal details should be reflected before this document is treated as final.

If you need clarification about an intended visit, dining occasion, private gathering, corporate format or in-person card evening, please use the dedicated contact page before relying on an assumption about the arrangement. It is the appropriate route for questions specific to the experience you are planning.
