Gimlet at Cavendish House (Melbourne)

Gimlet at Cavendish House is a grand European-style dining room and bar in Melbourne’s CBD from restaurateur Andrew McConnell, set in a restored 1920s building with tall arched windows and a marble-topped bar. Its wine team has a well-known passion for grower Champagne, and Champagne features both by the bottle and by the glass, with the by-the-glass selection changing regularly. Oysters, wood-grilled dishes and a raw bar sit alongside classic cocktails. It is at 33 Russell Street, Melbourne. Confirm current pours and prices when visiting.
