Natural History

  • Bar
  • Restaurant

Natural History is a sprawling 350-seater bar and grill that serves up a classic steakhouse menu with an American southern-style twist, such as coffee spiced pork ribs and rotisserie chicken.

Taking inspiration and reference from epic museums of the world and New York City-style steakhouses, the venue blends elements of mural, diorama, and taxidermy to create a natural world of foxes, mountain goats, and peacocks, providing an unusual backdrop to the booth and bar areas for a unique dining experience.

The City of Melbourne respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land we govern, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin and pays respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.

We acknowledge and honour the unbroken spiritual, cultural and political connection the Wurundjeri, Bunurong, Dja Dja Wurrung, Taungurung and Wadawurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin have to this unique place for more than 2000 generations.

We are committed to our reconciliation journey, because at its heart, reconciliation is about strengthening relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples, for the benefit of all Victorians.
