The Boatbuilders Yard - Melbourne

I had the pleasure of attending the bottomless brunch event for the queen's birthday. It was a delightful experience with a fantastic location and beautiful view of the river, perfect for people-watching. The quality and quantity of food and drinks were impressive, and the staff were all very friendly. I am eagerly anticipating the next event and will definitely be buying tickets.

I visited this restaurant to catch up with friends I hadn't seen in 20 years. The food and beer were excellent and reasonably priced. The atmosphere and vibe were really good, and despite it being a scorching 42 degrees, we chose to sit outside under cover, which was very comfortable. I couldn't find any faults with the place, but what really made our experience special was the friendly staff. The staff members were great and seemed to genuinely enjoy their work, making our time there enjoyable. This is now our go-to spot for get-togethers. Thank you to the staff for a great day.

This is a great place to enjoy a cold beer with a view of the river, delicious food, and fantastic service! It was a very enjoyable experience.

Just prior to the office shutdown we had post work drinks lazing on the deck chairs which is awesome on a sunny day (as long as it’s not too hot! . Order at the bar it's a pretty casual affair so no table service but a really nice atmosphere <br/ <br/ Recent <br/ I had lunch at BB and very much appreciated their new menu. It’s so much more extensive now it made it hard to chose. The lamb shoulder, brisket and burger were all in contention but wagyu burger won out (the fish burger intrigued me too though! . Really delicious stuff, a great improvement on their previous, far more limited offerings and I love the fact there are also many gourmet options available too <br/ <br/ Further update <br/ I've eaten here a couple of times given I used to work in South Wharf and it's a really lovely spot when the sun is shining. The super salad with poached chicken is always a good lunch option and sitting outside by the water meant I never wanted to go back to the office. <br/ <br/ Update <br/ After the resounding success of last year BB was once again our work after party venue of choice post Xmas shindig. Given our event is a daytime affair it works really well as this is a beautiful venue to see the sunset hit the water. It really is an iconic Melbourne space <br/ <br/ Original review<br/ We had our after party for the work Christmas party at Boatbuilders which was a wonderful choice of venue for a big group such as this and perfect time of year given the weather, being both an indoor and outdoor space. Staff kept up well with the demand for drinks. Would definitely consider this for a casual function space

Very little beats a charcuterie, cheese and wine lunch. It’s one of our most favourite things to do. Actually, I think we’re on a bit of a mission to find the very best charcuterie and cheese board out there. The boatbuilders have a very good one with the right amount of cheese/meat/accompaniments to keep you going back for more. Delicious!
