1. Terms and Conditions Overview

The purpose of this Terms and Conditions page is to outline the key rules, responsibilities, and expectations for all guests, members, and visitors of urbanpont88 Bistro & Card Room ("urbanpont88", "we", "us", or "our"). These terms apply to all areas of the venue, including the bistro, bar, card room, private hire spaces, and any hosted events.

By visiting our venue, making a reservation, ordering food or drinks, participating in card games, or attending any event on-site, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to comply with these Terms and Conditions, as well as any additional house rules communicated by our staff.

2. Venue Use & Entry Policy

urbanpont88 operates as a modern, land-based urban bistro combined with an offline poker lounge. Access to different areas of the venue is subject to age and conduct requirements, as set out below:

  • Age requirement for poker lounge and card games: All patrons must be at least 18 years old to enter the poker lounge or participate in any card or table game activities.
  • Family-friendly bistro area: The bistro dining area is open to all ages. However, minors (under 18) must be accompanied and supervised by a responsible adult at all times.
  • ID verification: We reserve the right to request a valid government-issued photo ID to verify age or identity before granting entry to the poker lounge or serving alcoholic beverages.
  • Right to refuse entry: Management may refuse entry or remove any guest who does not comply with these terms, appears intoxicated, behaves inappropriately, or poses a risk to the comfort or safety of others.

3. Responsible Gaming Principles

urbanpont88 is strictly an offline, land-based social venue. We do not offer any form of online gambling or remote betting services. All card activities are entertainment-focused and conducted on-site only.

We promote responsible gaming and encourage guests to maintain healthy boundaries when participating in games of chance. In particular, we ask that you:

  • Play for fun and social enjoyment, not as a way to solve financial difficulties or generate income.
  • Set personal limits on time and money spent on card games and respect those limits.
  • Never play under the influence of excessive alcohol or medication that impairs judgment.
  • Seek support or take a break from gaming if you feel your play is becoming problematic.

Our staff may, at their discretion, intervene, restrict play, or refuse further participation in card games if responsible gaming concerns arise.

4. Reservation & Table Policy

We aim to provide a smooth, energetic experience for both bistro guests and card room players. To manage capacity fairly:

  • Reservations: Bookings for bistro tables or card room seats are subject to availability at the requested time and may require confirmation via phone, email, or our on-site team.
  • Holding time: Reserved tables or seats will be held for up to 15 minutes after the scheduled time. If you are running late, please notify us as early as possible; otherwise, your reservation may be released to walk-in guests.
  • Walk-in policy: Walk-in guests are always welcome. However, priority for seating or game participation is given to guests with confirmed reservations.
  • Group bookings & events: Larger groups or private events may be subject to specific terms (such as minimum consumption, deposits, or cancellation deadlines), which will be communicated at the time of booking.

5. Kitchen & Food Service Terms

Our kitchen prepares food fresh to order, with a focus on quality, safety, and a vibrant bistro experience. To protect your health and ensure clarity:

  • Allergies and dietary needs: Guests are responsible for informing our staff of any allergies, intolerances, or specific dietary restrictions before placing an order, so we can advise on suitable options and potential risks.
  • Menu changes: Menu items, ingredients, portion sizes, and pricing are subject to change at any time without prior notice, in order to reflect availability, seasonality, and quality considerations.
  • Service hours: Kitchen opening and closing times may differ from bar or poker lounge hours and can vary on weekends, holidays, or during special events. Please check the Menu page or ask our staff for current service hours.
  • Food safety: For hygiene and safety reasons, we may restrict the consumption of outside food or drinks within the venue unless explicitly approved by management (e.g., special event cakes).
