The French Brasserie

  • Restaurant
  • Fine dining

Instantly welcoming, the French Brasserie offers a relaxing sanctuary at the top end of town. Soaring ceilings and vast glass expanses achieve a chic contemporary atmosphere while friendly attentive staff anticipate your every need. Open for lunch Monday to Friday and dinner Monday to Saturday, it continues to exceed the expectations of its guests who can choose to sit upstairs in the mezzanine area, inside at intimate tables or relax outside on the terrace.

Complementing the menu is the distinctive Australian and French wine list compiled by the in-house sommelier.

Bringing a wealth of experience, proprietor Hadj Sadki’s vision was to create an exciting dining experience with exemplary, unobtrusive service in relaxed convivial surrounds. This stylish establishment will continue to attract unprecedented praise and rave reviews with its inspirational menu, bold wine selections and unparalleled service.
