Ideas for making the most of The City, from early coffee and brunch to dinner, desserts and group dining in the CBD.

A Polished Table for CBD Meetings

The George Street location makes The City an easy choice for lunch, dinner and business meals.

Inside The Galeries, the dining room offers a central meeting point close to Queen Victoria Building and Town Hall Station.

For business meals, add seating requests when booking and our team will do what they can to help shape the visit.

Dessert

Coffee, Dessert and an Afternoon Escape

A coffee, a slice of something bright, and a little time in the room can reset a city afternoon.

The City suits more than a full meal. Come in for a coffee, settle near the bar, or make room for dessert after a long lunch.

Guests often remember the cakes, the coffee and the gentle drama of the room as much as the main plates.

Brunch

City Brunch With Old-World Detail

Start with coffee, settle into the dining room, and let the George Street rush stay outside.

Our breakfast service is made for the CBD morning: polished coffee, generous plates and a dining room that feels far removed from the pace outside.

Breakfast is served until 11:30am, with favourites such as Avocado Toast, Buttermilk Pancakes and Lobster Benedict bringing a little theatre to the start of the day.
