Xmas Day FAQs

Everything you need to know before joining us at BangPop on Christmas Day.

How does the $99 minimum spend work?

A $99 minimum spend applies per person, including children. It is paid when booking & credited toward your table’s food & drinks bill on Christmas Day. The credit may be used collectively by the table.

What menu can we order from?

Groups of seven or fewer may order from the à la carte menu or select a Christmas sharing menu. Groups of eight or more must dine from either the Suk San Wan Sharing Menu or Wow Kapow Christmas Menu.

Will the full bar be available?

Yes. Our full bar will be available throughout Christmas Day, including cocktails, wine, beer, spirits & non-alcoholic drinks. All drinks purchased will count toward your table’s minimum spend.

Are items marked gluten free suitable for guests w/ coeliac disease?

Yes. We use separate fryers & follow strict preparation procedures to minimise cross-contact. However, gluten is handled in our kitchen, so we cannot guarantee a completely gluten-free environment. Please identify any coeliac requirements when booking & again when ordering.

Does everyone have to choose the same sharing menu?

Yes. Everyone at the table must dine from the same selected sharing menu, excluding children ordering from the kids’ menu.

Are children welcome?

Yes. Children may order from the kids’ menu, including when dining as part of a larger group. The $99 per-person minimum spend still applies, but the credit may be used collectively by the table.

Can you cater for dietary requirements?

The Suk San Wan Sharing Menu can accommodate a range of dietary requirements w/ advance notice. Due to the special nature of the Wow Kapow Christmas Menu, dietary alterations are not available. Please provide all allergies & dietary requirements when booking.

Can separate bookings be seated together?

We’ll do our best. Everyone should book the same time & seating area using the same group booking name. Seating together cannot be guaranteed if your chosen allocation becomes fully booked.

Can we book separate tables to order à la carte?

Separate bookings will be treated as individual tables & cannot be guaranteed seating together. Groups of eight or more wishing to dine together must select either the Suk San Wan or Wow Kapow menu.

How long is our booking?

Christmas Day lunch bookings are for two hours from the reserved booking time. Please arrive promptly so you can enjoy your full sitting.

What is the Riverside Terrace like?

The Riverside Terrace is an outdoor, undercover area beside the Yarra River. Awnings can be lowered when required; however, we cannot guarantee that terrace bookings can be moved inside due to weather.

Can we change our guest numbers?

Guest numbers may be changed until 25 November 2026, subject to availability. After this date, confirmed guest numbers & minimum-spend payments are final.

What is the cancellation policy?

Bookings may be cancelled until 25 November 2026. After this date, payments are non-refundable.

Is there a public holiday surcharge?

Yes. A 15% public holiday surcharge applies to all food & beverage purchases on Christmas Day.
