11 The Esplanade, St Kilda

The Gershwin Room can cater for any event. The Espy is THE place to party! Melbourne's iconic home of live music has a stunning kitchen and bar area and now truly offers the whole package; great food, reasonable prices, killer location and the same relaxed Espy vibe.

The Gershwin Room is the former grand dining room of the original Esplanade Hotel and recently underwent extensive restoration, returning the hallowed stage and intricate period details to their original splendour. From the incredibly elaborate ceiling which has been painstakingly hand-finished, the gold leaf walls and rich, hand-rendered motifs, to the open fireplace, the Gershwin Room is now undoubtedly one of Australia's most beautiful spaces.

The menu has something to suit all tastes and budgets, including traditional 'pub favourites' as well as a selection of smaller popular 'Mezze' style dishes and finger food.
