The Club opened earlier at 12 noon for the lead up to Collingwood Essendon blockbuster. MECC President Paul Abel reports “We had over 2 dozen people at the Club for the thrilling Collingwood-Essendon game. The simple ‘footy food theme’ with pies, hotdogs and a sausage sizzle was very popular, as was the Two Up game. To top it off, we received a new membership application as a result of being open. It was a great day enjoyed by all.”

Thanks to all members for embracing and utilising our new website. While this new site is operational, the committee are still filling in a lot of content and constructing pages. Please email any questions to mjkirk@kirkfood.com.au .

Thanks,
Matthew Kirk (Committee)

The Club has been there since 1956.

It was established in Old Mornington Rd (cnr Alfrey Crt) by a group of local businessmen, including founding members Sir Edgar Coles and Sir Reginald Ansett, who desired a meeting place to socialise.

Previously, since 1952, local illuminaries such as Sir Edgar Coles, G.J. Coles and Sir Reginald Ansett had been meeting on weekends in a garage at Sir Edgar Coles property, Hendra, on Old Mornington Rd.

Prior to this, meetings had been held at the Manyung Hotel (now the Melbourne Business School on Kunyung Rd)

With its growing popularity (and lack of a liquor licence) the ranks of those attending (including judges, lawyers and police) deemed it socially responsible to source a property to relocate their social activities.

The current property was acquired from the Allfrey family and in 1956 it was issued with a liquor licence unique in Victoria thanks to its well resourced patrons.

The Club provides a convivial and comfortable atmosphere for its members to enjoy business lunches, watch televised sporting events and enjoy the extensive social calendar of golf days, sportsmans lunches as well as club snooker and pool competitions.

The Club bar serves Melbourne’s best beer, with a wide selection of spirits and wines available. Takeaway sales are allowed for members.

 

The Clubhouse is situated in well kept gardens with ample car parking in front and behind. It has been extensively renovated over the years, providing comfortable surroundings in both winter and summer. BBQ facilities are also available for members to self cater.

Whilst the Mount Eliza Club is available, only to Members, the Clubrooms are available to Members and non-Members alike, to hire out for functions (inclusive of bar staff).

The Club is an ideal Venue for Functions, Wedding Receptions and Conferences
