One kitchen sets up beside the stage each show night, never both. Show nights are general seating, so come early and see what’s on. Coming with a crowd? Email us and we’ll sort you out.
Everything on sale
Straight from the box office, so it’s never out of date.
New nights go on sale all the time and dates occasionally move. Tickets are sold through SimpleTix and open in a new tab.

Six and a half acres,
and a room to come inside to.
Private events & catering
Close the gate.
The garden is yours.
Two ways in. Book a catered buffet dinner for forty or more and the room comes with it, or rent the space on its own and add platters or small bites on top. Everything comes out of our own kitchen.
Looking for live music? Those are ticketed public nights and a different thing entirely. The season is up here.
- Christmas parties
- Milestone birthdays
- New Year’s
- Staff dinners
- Celebrations of life
- Fundraisers
- AGMs
- Speaker & gallery nights
The facility rental
$1,000
Already inside the catered dinner prices, which is why those are quoted per person. Charged on its own if you’re renting the space and adding platters or small bites.
- Exclusive use of the whole room
- A dedicated performance stage
- The speaker system and microphones, as many as you need
- The projector, for sound and display
- Every table and chair set up beforehand and taken down after
- All the linens laundered afterwards
Buffet style, from forty guests up, everything cooked here. The $1,000 rental is already inside the per-person price, so one number covers the room and the meal. Three tiers on the same table; the food gets better as you climb.
1
Basic
$47/person
The entry point for a proper seated dinner, and the right call when the group eats much the same way.
Three salads, two sides, one entrée and house-baked bread.
2
Standard
$55/person
Our most-booked tier. A table of forty won’t all want the same plate.
Everything in Basic plus a second entrée, so every guest has a real choice.
3
Banquet
Market price
Milestones, anniversaries and the evenings you want people to remember.
Everything in Basic plus a premium entrée: butcher’s roasted ribeye with bordelaise and horseradish, or wild-caught roasted salmon with lemon dill cream. Priced at market value on the day you book.
Add a dessert course to any tier, $10 a person, coffee and tea included.
The room, the sound, the projector and the set-up on their own, right for celebrations of life, meetings and gatherings where you mostly need somewhere good to be. No guest minimum. Then add as much or as little food as you want, on top of the rental.
+
Event Platters
from $50/platter
Open houses, receptions, AGMs and gentle gatherings.
Veggie, fruit and sandwich platters, dessert trays, and water, iced tea, lemonade or coffee stations. Order only what the room needs.
+
Small Bites
$25/person
Speaker nights, gallery openings and evenings that begin with a drink in hand.
Choose any five from the crostini, skewers, sliders and tarts. Canapés rather than a sit-down meal, so nobody needs a knife and fork.
Both are on top of the $1,000 rental.

Current bar prices come with your quote. Run an open bar and we’ll track it and add it to your final bill, or let guests pay as they go. We’re licensed, so no alcohol may be brought onto or taken off the property without a special event permit agreed with us in advance.
Getting married?
Weddings aren’t booked through the cafe. They’re handled by the gardens themselves, next door and under the same trees.
We take simple
and do it really well.
Everything is made here. Ask a server about the special. There almost always is one.
Eating on a show night
One kitchen sets up beside the stage on a show night, either Dough Bros or Skaha Tacos, never the two together. Which one you get depends on the night.
Some nights
Dough Bros Flatbread Co.
Neapolitan flatbreads out of a live fire beside the stage. Okanagan-made, since 2023. What they’re firing changes night to night.
Other nights
Skaha Tacos
Tacos in the garden while the music plays, every one of them gluten-free and dairy-free. What’s on the board changes, so come and see.
Linden Gardens
The patio sits in the
middle of the garden.
Six and a half acres of ponds, linden trees, hydrangeas and shade, wrapped the whole way around where you’re sitting. Wander before lunch, or take the long way back to the car afterwards.
Ask your server to add a pass to your bill. Passes are sold again when the cafe reopens.
