Sourcing Excellence

We select our ingredients from local Australian producers, ensuring every plate bursts with freshness and seasonal flavour.

From coastal fisheries to cool-climate farms, our kitchen builds close relationships with growers and makers who share our respect for provenance. Menus move with the market, letting native herbs, pasture-raised meats, and line-caught seafood lead each service.

This grounded approach keeps the mood relaxed yet elevated: fine-dining techniques, bistro warmth, and a distinct sense of place rooted in Australia.

A considered progression

From First Pour to Dessert Finale

Each course is designed as part of a quiet narrative – beginning with bright, precise starters and deepening into bold, layered mains before resolving in soft, elegant sweetness.

Signature Starters

Begin your meal with elegant starters, thoughtfully composed to awaken the palate and set the stage for the evening. Expect textural contrasts, restrained acidity, and small, jewel-like plates that invite sharing without rushing the moment.

Expertly Crafted Mains

Indulge in gourmet mains that marry classic technique with bold flavours, curated by our Head Chef for sophisticated dining. Slow reductions, charcoal grill marks, and carefully balanced sauces meet confident, uncluttered plating.

Dessert Finale

Conclude with elevated desserts that balance creative flair and comforting tradition for the perfect finish. Silky custards, bitter chocolate, and delicate citrus notes create a final chapter that lingers long after the last forkful.

Wine & Beverage Pairings

Our sommelier recommends boutique Australian wines and signature cocktails crafted to enhance each menu item.

Layers of flavour on the plate find their echo in the glass. Our list leans into small Australian producers, minimal-intervention labels, and vintages that sing with our charcoal, citrus, and herb-driven notes.

Alongside the cellar, our bar team builds emerald-toned cocktails and low-ABV options that frame the cuisine rather than outshine it, keeping the table bright-eyed from first toast to last course.

The Chef’s Table

Book an intimate experience at our Chef’s Table, offering a bespoke menu and behind-the-scenes views of our lively open kitchen.

Seated just off the pass, guests at the Chef’s Table feel the quiet pulse of service: the hiss of the pans, the calm calls, the final, decisive wipe of each plate. Menus are written to the season and tailored to the table, with the chef guiding you through the progression.

This is The Fork at its most personal – a conversation between kitchen and guest, framed by dark jade tones and the low hum of the dining room.

Vegetarian & Dietary Options

Our inclusive menu features a range of vibrant vegetarian dishes and accommodations for dietary needs.

Plant-led plates are treated with the same care as any main event: slow-roasted vegetables, smoked oils, and bright, herbaceous dressings that feel generous rather than secondary.

Our team is able to thoughtfully accommodate many dietary considerations with advance notice, ensuring every guest enjoys the full rhythm of the evening with confidence and ease.

Culinary Craftsmanship

Watch artisans at work in the kitchen, where technique and passion meet to create memorable flavours.

From precise knife work to the final seasoning at the pass, each dish is the result of practiced technique, disciplined tasting, and a shared respect for ingredients. The energy is calm, the details deliberate.

Guests are invited to observe, ask, and savour – an open yet understated theatre that keeps the focus on the plate and the people around it.

Bistro to Lounge

As evening unfolds, savour small plates and cocktails in The Flop Salon, where gourmet meets convivial card play.

After dinner, the energy softens and drifts towards The Flop – our private card lounge where the same attention to flavour extends to late-night snacks and emerald-toned drinks. It is a space for unhurried hands of cards, whispered tactics, and one more plate at the centre of the table.

The cuisine remains the quiet constant that links The Fork bistro and The Flop lounge: thoughtful, generous, and always anchored in the pleasure of good company.
