The Venue
A new chapter begins: introducing Blackbird Melbourne, the much-anticipated sister to our iconic Brisbane flagship. Celebrated for over a decade, Blackbird now brings its signature spirit to the heart of Melbourne, located at 66 Flinders Lane, within the buzzing Collins Place precinct at Exhibition Street.
Opening this August, Blackbird Melbourne invites you into a world of sophisticated indulgence across three stunning levels. The journey begins at our street-level wine bar, where an intimate lounge offers a serene retreat from the city’s vibrant energy. Rich textures, contemporary design, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere set the tone for an unforgettable experience.
A grand central staircase, crowned by a dazzling chandelier, leads you to the next level — a split-level dining room that balances glamour and intimacy. One side features soaring mirrored ceilings for a bold, theatrical dining moment; the other, a cocooned space dressed in moody charcoal hues for those seeking something a little more secluded.
With menus inspired by local flavors, featuring a wood-fire cooking line, dry-aged meats, exquisite seafood, and seasonal botanicals sourced from local artisans. It's a culinary adventure celebrating Victoria's dynamic food scene.
Ascend once more and discover our private dining rooms and versatile event spaces, each thoughtfully designed to host everything from elegant gatherings to unforgettable celebrations.
