GROSVENOR HOTEL

The Grosvenor Hotel, newly renovated and rejuvenated, is now open for business.

The hotel has been landmark on Brighton Road,  St Kilda East since it was first licensed in late 1800’s, in the traditional style of a Melbourne Pub. It’s now a hotel for modern life. It’s all about the good things in life: good food and drink, good service, and good value in stylish but unpretentious surroundings.

Choose from the bar and atrium, or the bistro.

The bistro, with its stylish bentwood chairs and smart Edison lights, is the place for dinner and long weekend lunches. Don’t miss the house-made pasta, or the dishes cooked in the wood-fired oven.

The wine bar and atrium share an Italian-influenced menu designed for companionship and good flavours any time from noon: sliced cured meats, soft cheese, a daily changing antipasto selection prepared chef Leo Leopardi, and a great range of pizza cooked in a wood-fired oven.

The menu offers a large proportion of gluten free dishes, including gluten-free pasta.

The drinks list is everything patrons could wish for, with a wide range of beer, cocktails and spirits, and a wine list that’s the envy of many restaurants. Pick any wine from the hundreds of labels available, and add $10 to the bottle shop price to savour with a meal.

“All our customers are special,” says general manager Frank Chilelli. “But we know they have different needs. Sometimes they want a pizza and a beer in the bar, other times they want a three-course dinner in the bistro, or a special occasion in the private room.

“Whatever they want, we always provide good food and good service at good prices.”
