Collingwood Restaurants

As a multi-faceted venue, we provide a rich culinary showcase of Australian food and drink producers via our retail store, bar, eatery and in-house production facilities. We have incorporated an onsite micro-brewery, distillery, cured meats and cheese making rooms, coffee roasters. We also operate our own 40 acre site that produces grapes for wine, with future plan to grow fruit, vegetables, grain, hops and livestock for in-house food and drink products.

The education side will be brought to life via an immersive program of events and classes to learn how produce is made, why they are made in that way and how to take your new skills and use them at home. Many of these events will be held in collaboration with our industry peers to give you the best knowledge and experience, so you can then share the traditions with friends and family.

Our eatery reflects our passion for modern food created using traditional and contemporary techniques, dishes that highlight the integrity of each ingredient, our ability to create so many elements in-house and our industry relationships with producers and makers.

At Wabi Sabi, we create authentic and fusion Japanese cuisine. Just as you would find in Tokyo.

Wabi Sabi's chefs are all Japanese. Trained by professional Japanese chefs. All of our dishes are home made and we use the best fresh fish daily from the markets.

We recommend that you order a few dishes to share, it's the Japanese way. This way, you will have a more balanced meal. And most importantly, it's more fun!

Punjabi Curry Cafe has a very visible tandoor (clay oven) around which you can see the chef prepare delights such as lamb cutlets, kebabs, tandoori prawn, chicken tikka and, of course, naan bread.

We can accommodate over sixty guests in our comfortable dining hall.

In 1982, Mamma Vittoria combined her love for cooking and meeting people by opening a typically Italian, family restaurant in Smith Street, Fitzroy, Mamma Vittoria’s.

Since that first day she has been lovingly serving her customers nothing but the very best. Always family owned and operated, many of her family have spent their time working in the restaurant. Today, one of her sons, Riccardo, has the run of the kitchen, cooking up new tasty dishes to complement her traditional, Italian inspired, Mamma Vittoria favourites.

One of Melbourne's most iconic landmark hotels. Established in 1865 it has an irish theme and a number of large spectacular lead light windows. Being the only single story hotel ever built in that era and steeped in history of bygone eras.

Smith Street Alimentari was established to expand on our existing and very popular take home or ‘pronto’ meals, already available from Brunswick Street Alimentari for the past 15 years.

In addition to our pronto meals, we have introduced our French rotisserie and catering menu. We offer a huge larder section, fresh pasta bar, deli section and quality meats.

Our pronto meals are all fresh, not frozen in order for you to have the option of enjoying your meal that evening or freeze for another day.

Our aim is to provide quality meals for singles, couples and families at a reasonable price. Our belief is that take home meals shouldn’t be luxury purchase but a guilt free option that you can take advantage of a few times a week.

You are also welcome to stop in on your way to work for a light breakfast and coffee or pop in for lunch and choose from our salad and panini bar.

The Baden offers 12 rotating taps filled with local seasonal craft beer, over 50 bottles of imported and local beer and cider, Italian and Australian centered wine selection and fresh wholesome modern Italian food.

The Hell of the North shares its name with the infamous Paris-Roubaix bike race held once a year on Easter Sunday in northern France near the Belgian frontier. Famous for rough terrain, hardship and cobblestones it is one of the 'Monuments' or Classics of the European calendar. Unlike the race, Hell of the North bar and bistro in Fitzroy seeks to marry heaven and hell with a Euro-bistro grazing menu derived from local produce and fresh ingredients, as well as a selection of boutique beers, wine and cocktails to tantalise the fire within.
The Hell of the North has a strong focus towards casual dining and drinking with service that is informed whilst personable, and relaxed yet detailed. We are open for service from 6pm till 1am Wednesday to Friday and lunch on Saturday and Sunday from 12 noon. We also offer a supper menu from 10pm ~1am Wednesday to Sunday. Group bookings are accepted however reservations are strongly recommended.

Located in the heart of Collingwood, Saint Crispin’s kitchen, run by chefs Joe Grbac and Scott Pickett, prepares a finely considered contemporary menu that’s amended daily according to nature’s bounty.

The dining room bar serves equally mulled over cocktails, wines, ales and champagnes. We also boast Thomas Olive upstairs at 300 Smith Street where you can refresh yourself with a sit down in one of our grand chesterfield sofas, a beverage and a ‘little bite’, if you fancy, plus a beautifully furnished private dining room.

"We are all thieves when it comes to fine food."

So says the chef at Melbourne's newest addition to the cafe scene.

Quaintly positioned in the remains of an old chocolate factory, the Breakfast Thieves cafe offers brunch-hunters a welcome resite from the constant bustle of Smith Street. Since its opening earlier this April, mouthwatering scents of modern Australian cuisine with a tantalizing Asian edge have wafted out onto the sidewalk and infiltrated the neighbourhood.

All it takes is a quick glance, a glorious scent. and a moment of craving before your mouth waters and you can't resist
