4. Poker Evenings and Entertainment Policy
Our poker evenings and invitation-only tournaments are designed as exclusive entertainment experiences without real-money gambling. Participation is strictly for social engagement; no cash prizes or gambling activities are offered.
All poker-related activities at StackAndSear are structured as private, entertainment-focused events in which chips and outcomes have no monetary value. Any rewards, if offered, are purely promotional or experiential and cannot be exchanged for cash or used as a form of wagering.
By participating in our poker evenings, you acknowledge that the events are recreational in nature and agree not to introduce any form of unauthorised betting, cash games, or side wagering within the venue.

Guests must be at least 18 years old to participate in poker evenings or book private events involving poker entertainment.
We may request valid photo identification to verify age before granting access to poker lounges, tournaments or poker-inclusive private functions. Management reserves the right to refuse entry or participation if appropriate identification cannot be provided.
6. User Conduct
Guests are expected to maintain respectful behaviour towards other patrons and staff. We reserve the right to refuse service or access to individuals who do not comply with our standards of conduct.
This includes, but is not limited to, a zero-tolerance approach to aggressive behaviour, harassment, discrimination, or any actions that compromise the comfort, safety or enjoyment of others. We may ask guests to leave the premises or cancel future bookings where conduct does not align with our expectations.
