It's really a hidden gem tucked in behind an industrial area. I went on Friday night when the food trucks were there. Good atmosphere and what looks to be different trucks every week. Parking can be alittle tricky but you will be able to find something eventually on the street. Definitely recommend if you're in the Moorooka area.

I stumbled upon Arcana venue via google and facebook when I was looking for an indoor/outdoor area to host my baby shower. We were able to have a look at the venue when we attended one of there Friday Food Truck events! It was a great atmosphere, they had a bar, live music and plenty of food, I would definitely suggest checking this out on a Friday night. We fell in love with ‘The Temperance Garden Bar’ and quickly booked. The owner Andrew was so accommodating with dates, catering, set up and parking. On the day we had the privilege of working with Solene for set up, she made the lay out look so beautiful and herself and another young girl spent the day providing amazing service to our guests! We had so many compliments from family and friends about how great the venue was! We are so grateful to Arcana for creating such a special memory for us. Would 100% recommend !
