An elegant restaurant evening with a real offline poker table naturally present in the venue, offering a refined space for social poker. The lounge is part of the restaurant, not a separate gambling venue. Poker is strictly physical and venue-based, with chips only as table props. The atmosphere is calm and premium, aligned with the restaurant's Swiss Modernist design.
Reserve Your SeatThe card lounge is an integral part of Brass & Onyx, designed for guests who appreciate the strategic depth of poker in a sophisticated setting. The lounge is physically located within the restaurant, allowing seamless transition from dining to play.
The design follows Minimal Swiss Modernism: flat white surfaces, pale-grey panels, near-black typography, and hairline dividers. Poker here is a social and intellectual pursuit, not a gambling activity. There is no money, wagering, or prizes involved.
Each poker table is custom-made with a felt surface, wooden rail, and integrated chip trays, reflecting the restaurant's commitment to quality. Tables are designed for comfort during long poker evenings. The felt is a deep green, contrasting with the pale-grey panels of the room. Chip trays are built into the rail for easy access. Chips are only table props, not currency.
The lounge features multiple table sizes to accommodate different group sizes and formats, from casual play to structured Texas Hold'em evenings. Standard tables seat up to 8 players. Larger tables for private gatherings are available upon enquiry. All tables are positioned to allow natural light and easy movement. No wagering or prizes at any table.
The poker tables are set within a calm, elegant environment, with soft lighting and minimal decor to keep focus on the game. Lighting is adjustable to suit evening play. No distracting elements; the design is intentionally understated. Background music is low and unobtrusive. All poker activity is offline and venue-based.
Poker evenings are carefully structured to balance play, dining, and social interaction, typically lasting three to four hours. Evenings begin with a brief introduction and seating arrangement. Play is divided into sessions with breaks for refreshments. The focus is on enjoyment and skill development, not competition for prizes. No money, wagering, or prizes are involved. Poker is strictly offline and venue-based.
