A non-tennis lunch makes the timing easier if you are exploring the CBD. After tennis, a reservation gives the group a more useful meeting point than a plan to queue with no clear dining time.\n\nGroups of six or more must take the Feed Me menu; larger groups of twenty-one or more should contact the events team.
