About The Goldfinch

Food and dining

The kitchen serves a contemporary sharing-style menu, with dishes such as seared tuna, mushroom tacos, coconut calamari, eggplant and lamb belly among those regularly singled out. The bar features a drinks list built around local produce and a range of hand-crafted cocktails. The restaurant caters well for dietary requirements, with a strong selection of gluten-free options, and is open for weekday lunch and dinner from Tuesday to Sunday.

Functions and MICE relevance
