Illusions lounge Review by Greg Martin Centrally located in the heart of the Hawkesbury at Windsor in the historic and popular Macquarie Park dining precinct at the top of George Street, Illusions Lounge is a premiere location for a multitude of functions and events. Illusions Lounge offers a casual elegance that is flexible enough to accommodate you, whatever your event or function vision may be. Whether it is for an intimate gathering for 10, a stylish cocktail soiree for 50, a booming office party for up to 150, or the increasingly popular high tea on Sunday, Tina Andersen and her wonderful staff has it all covered! In addition to the impressive setting, Illusions Lounge delivers to its clients an exceptional standard of service throughout each and every facet of the event process. With an experienced team of staff and management, it is their job to ensure you have the best experience possible. “We pride ourselves on being able to tailor packages to suit individual needs and desires,” said Tina. “We know that no two parties are ever the same!” If you are planning a birthday, cocktail party, farewell, corporate function or just a night out with a large group of your nearest and dearest, Illusions can cater for functions from 10 – 150 people. You have your choice of venues at Illusions – on the Verandah or in the salubrious inside areas. The sun-drenched Verandah is perfect for an outdoor lunch or dinner, post-work drinks, or cocktails and Tapas under a starlit sky. Sporting ample outdoor seating and full availability to enjoy the delicious Illusions Lounge Tapas menu, the Verandah is ideal for hip yet casual dining, drinks and socialising. Areas can be reserved either inside or on the Verandah. With an impressive capacity of 50 and incredible ambience, the flexible Verandah is a highly sought-after area for a variety of functions. Focusing on fresh Australian produce and fresh flavours, the Illusions Lounge Tapas menu does not compromise on portion size and value for money, with something to please even the pickiest of palates. “Set menu options are also available and we can tailor it to suit your requirements,” said Tina. Reservations will require a deposit. All food and beverage packages must be paid for and confirmed prior to the function. For all beverage packages and tabs, Illusions provides coloured wristbands for you and your guests. “Whether for a smaller group from 10 people or a larger gathering up to 150 people, we have areas and food designed to suit your every need,” said Tina.
