Frenchville Sports Club is proud to announce the official opening of Stage 3 of its major renovations, introducing Embers Bistro and the much-anticipated Kids Clubhouse. Two spaces designed to bring families together and deliver an even greater experience for the community.
Following the success of Stages One and Two, this next chapter marks a significant milestone for the Club as it continues to evolve into Central Queensland’s leading hospitality and entertainment destination.
Graeme Brady OAM, Chairman of Frenchville Sports Club, said Stage 3 has been all about creating family-friendly spaces that reflect the Club’s community spirit.
“Our Club has always been about more than sport, great food or entertainment. It’s about creating a place where everyone feels welcome,” Mr Brady said.
“With Ember’s Bistro and the Kids Clubhouse, we’ve reimagined what it means for families to enjoy quality time together. Parents can relax over a premium dining experience in the new Bistro while the kids explore, play, and make memories in their own dedicated space.”
Embers Bistro has been designed with a modern, spacious feel, offering a fresh and inviting dining experience for members and guests. The all-new menu will showcase premium selections and elevated favourites, from mouthwatering steaks cooked to perfection, to fresh local seafood, and dishes the whole family will love.
The Kids Clubhouse is a purpose-built play area designed for children aged 4–14. Offering a fully supervised, engaging, and fun environment, the Clubhouse is complemented by Frenchville’s free Kids Club membership program.
CEO Damien Massingham said the new additions reflect the Club’s vision to provide something for every member of the community.
“This stage is really special because it speaks to families, one of the most important parts of our community,” Mr Massingham said.
“Ember’s Bistro offers a premium dining experience with a menu that will impress, while the Kids Clubhouse is about giving families the chance to enjoy the Club together in new and exciting ways. It’s another step in making Frenchville a true destination for everyone.”
Mr Massingham also thanked the Club’s Board, staff, and project partners for their dedication and support throughout the renovations.
“Of course, none of this would be possible without our members, who continue to support us through each stage of the journey. We can’t wait to welcome families back to experience Embers Bistro and Kids Clubhouse.”
The opening of Stage 3 marks another major milestone in Frenchville Sports Club’s transformation, with more exciting developments still to come.
Frenchville Sports Club invites all members and guests to visit, dine, and celebrate this new chapter together.
