Preamble; Samuel Wynn (co-founder of Wynn's Wines) re-established the popular French Cafe Denat from Ehibition Street, to a little closer to the source of his trade (Parliament House and Gordon House), upstairs at 78-80 Bourke Street. In 1925, part of the upstairs interior now known to many as the Cafe Florentino 'old' dining room was created to the design of architect JVT Ward. Wynn subsequently leased the cafe to Rinaldo Massoni. In turn, Massoni obtained space over 82 Bourke ... more

Society Restaurant

23-29 Bourke Street,, MELBOURNE VIC 3000 - Property No B6081

Built for G W Hall, in 1900-01, to the design of William Salway, this building is notable for the individual character of its free Romanesque revival upperfacade and its contribution to a similarly inspired streetscape. One of the earliest of Melbourne's restaurants with a cosmopolitan flavour, in this case essentially Italian, the Society remains well built into Melbourne's social scene. Classified: 21/09/1989

Former Wing Ching Restaurant

Chung Wah ,  Che On

11-13 Heffernan Lane,, MELBOURNE VIC 3000 - Property No B6579

The building was erected as the Wing Ching Restaurant in 1891. It appears that the upper floors were used for warehouse space with the gantry protruding from the top floor doorway. The cafe was known as the Quon Che On from 1900 to 1915 and since then until recently was known as the Chung Wah. This cafe was probably the first frequented by Westerners in Chinatown in the 1920's. The building is of unusual proportions being on a narrow site and of fine plain red brickwork. It is an ... more

Restaurant

Built in about 1895 this two storey building is another essential part of the Chinatown character. This example is of rendered brickwork with three arched windows flanked by plaster pilasters supporting decorative arches marked with an exaggerated keystone.

Sky-High Restaurant

Observatory Road,, MOUNT DANDENONG VIC 3767 - Property No B7116

The Sky High Restaurant (completed 1971) and associated landscaping (completed 1967), all designed by J Dale Fisher, is architecturally and socially important at the Regional level. Architecturally, the design, based on overlapping circles and curves at different levels, is a unique and fascinating geometric composition combining buildings and landscaping in an organic whole. The circular restaurant is the focal point of the design, with circular platforms, and the curved ... more

Stalbridge Chambers

Syracuse Wine Bar & Restaurant

435-445 Little Collins Street,, MELBOURNE VIC 3000 - Property No B4514

Built in 1890-01, Stalbridge Chambers is externally perhaps the best of the many richly decorated, similarly styled, Boom-era designs from the architects, Twentyman & Askew. As the product of an owner builder (R C Brown) the building epitomises the speculative nature of the time and, with its combination of hotel, shops and offices, offers an early example of multi-use development. Stalbridge Chambers also has an important role at the entry point to the significant Bank Place ... more
