Coffee Solutions for Clubs & RSLs in Australia

At Pelican Rouge Australia, we understand that clubs are more than just venues—they are social hubs where members gather to relax, connect, and enjoy quality experiences. From the bustling front café and pokies room, to event spaces and members’ lounges, every area of a club has its own rhythm and demand for coffee.That’s why we provide tailored coffee solutions for clubs and RSLs across Australia, combining world-class coffee machines with premium beans, full service support, and flexible packages. Whether you need high-volume output for busy areas or smaller portable units for functions and events, we deliver a complete solution that keeps members happy and operations running smoothly.

Why Coffee Matters in Clubs

For clubs like RSLs, football and bowls clubs, and social venues, coffee is no longer an afterthought—it’s a key part of the member experience. Today’s club-goers expect café-quality coffee every time they order, no matter where in the club they are. A consistently great flat white or cappuccino can keep members staying longer, spending more, and coming back.The challenge many clubs face is balancing high demand with consistency. In high-traffic areas like the gaming floor or main café, staff turnover and barista training levels can impact quality. At the same time, smaller sections of the club may not need a full café setup, but still require a reliable coffee option. That’s where we come in.

Complete Coffee Solutions for Clubs

Pelican Rouge Australia provides complete coffee solutions for clubs, including RSLs, sports clubs, and social venues across New South Wales and beyond. We understand that great coffee isn’t just a drink — it’s part of the club experience. A well-made cup of coffee encourages members to stay longer, relax, and enjoy the community atmosphere your venue is known for.

Our tailored approach is built on three pillars:

High-Performance Machines – We supply a wide range of commercial coffee machines for clubs, designed to perform under pressure. From small café corners to high-traffic gaming rooms and dining areas, our machines deliver consistent, barista-quality coffee with minimal staff involvement. Models such as the CAYE Smart X and Dr Coffee Coffee Bar Plus are ideal for RSLs and hospitality venues needing speed, reliability, and quality in every cup. Each unit can be integrated with cashless or telemetry systems, helping clubs manage performance and usage remotely.

Premium Coffee Beans – Pelican Rouge has been crafting exceptional coffee for over 150 years. Our premium coffee beans for clubs are roasted in Australia using carefully selected European recipes. We offer a variety of blends suited to every taste — from smooth, balanced profiles perfect for all-day service to rich, full-bodied espresso blends ideal for morning trade. Consistency, aroma, and quality are our hallmark.

End-to-End Support – As a trusted coffee supplier for clubs in NSW, Pelican Rouge offers more than machines and beans. We manage every stage of your coffee operation — installation, staff training, servicing, and preventive maintenance. With real-time telemetry monitoring, we ensure your machines run smoothly, your stock levels remain consistent, and your members always enjoy a perfect cup.

Whether you’re a large venue like Bankstown Sports Club, Rooty Hill RSL, or Canterbury League Club, or a regional community club looking to enhance your coffee offer, Pelican Rouge can design a custom coffee solution that fits your service style, volume, and budget.

Coffee Machines Perfect for Clubs

We know that one machine doesn’t fit all. That’s why we provide different solutions for different areas of your club.

CAYE Smart X – Perfect for Busy Club Areas

The CAYE Smart X is built for high-volume environments like front cafés and gaming rooms. It’s ideal when you need speed and consistency without depending on highly trained baristas.

  • Consistent Quality – Even staff with minimal training can deliver café-quality coffee every time.

  • Modular System – If a module needs replacing, a technician can swap it in under five minutes, reducing downtime.

  • Telemetry Support – We can remotely monitor your machines, quickly identifying issues before they affect service.

  • High Output – Handles peak demand in busy areas with ease.

At Hornsby RSL Club, the Smart X is the hero in the pokies room and café—ensuring every member gets a reliable cup of coffee, even during the busiest times.

Dr Coffee Units – Flexible & Versatile for Clubs

For medium and low-volume areas, or as portable solutions for events, Dr Coffee machines such as the Coffee Zone T and Coffee Bar are an excellent fit.

  • Compact Footprint – Perfect for event spaces, members’ lounges, or secondary service points.

  • Versatility – Can be set up as permanent installations or moved to support functions and high-traffic periods.

  • Cost-Effective – Ideal for areas where full café equipment isn’t necessary.

  • Reliable Backup – A smart way to ensure your club never runs out of coffee options during peak times.

At Hornsby RSL, Dr Coffee units are strategically placed across different club sections, providing flexibility and ensuring no area is left without coffee service.

Tailored Coffee Solutions for Every Area of Your Club

Every club has its own layout and member flow, which is why we customise solutions for each location.

    • Front Café & Foyer – Smart X delivers high-quality espresso at speed for members and visitors.

    • Gaming Rooms / Pokies – Fast, reliable coffee without requiring a skilled barista.

    • Event Spaces – Portable Dr Coffee units can be moved in and out for banquets, functions, or conferences.

    • Lounges & Meeting Rooms – Compact Dr Coffee systems provide convenience without compromising quality.

    • Back-Up Solutions – Secondary machines ready to handle overflow during peak times or special events.

Premium Coffee Beans for Clubs

Machines are only half of the story. Our coffee is roasted to perfection, designed to deliver smooth, rich flavours that suit the Australian palate. We provide a range of blends so clubs can choose the profile that best suits their members.

From bold, full-bodied espresso blends to smoother medium roasts, we ensure your coffee offering keeps members satisfied and coming back for more.

Service, Support & Reliability

One of the biggest concerns for clubs is downtime. A coffee machine breakdown on a busy night means unhappy members and lost revenue. With Pelican Rouge, that worry is eliminated.

  • 24/7 Support & Servicing – Our nationwide network of technicians is always ready to respond.

  • Remote Telemetry – We can monitor your machines remotely, spotting issues before they escalate.

  • Fast Module Replacement – Machines like the Smart X are modular, meaning any issue can be resolved quickly.
