A Modern Australian Supper Club

Stack and Hearth redefines the supper club for modern Melbourne, blending contemporary Australian cuisine with the intimate allure of a private card lounge. Our kitchen works with seasonal, locally sourced ingredients, shaping a menu that changes with the rhythm of Victoria's farms and waters. The atmosphere draws from classic supper clubs, but the details feel distinctly now: matte black surfaces, deep red accents, and cream light that warms the room without softening its edge.

The dining room features dark timber, leather accents, and soft lighting, creating a warm and sophisticated environment. Music and lighting are curated for an elegant evening, so conversation stays at the centre of the experience. It is a place designed for long dinners, considered drinks, and the quiet anticipation of what happens after the plates are cleared.

Our attentive staff provides seamless service, guiding you through the menu and wine list with expertise. Knowledgeable about food and wine pairings, the team remains discreet and professional from first greeting to final pour.

Ambiance

The dining room's intimate lighting and acoustic design ensure conversation flows as easily as the wine. Soft, warm lighting and background music at a comfortable level create a room that feels exclusive without feeling stiff.

Cuisine

Modern Australian dishes showcase the best of local produce, with a menu that changes seasonally. Expect fresh, regional ingredients and creative presentations that respect the produce and reward the table.

Chef and Kitchen Philosophy

Head Chef brings a passion for Australian ingredients and a commitment to culinary excellence. Trained in leading Melbourne kitchens, our chef focuses on sustainability and seasonality, working closely with local farmers and producers to bring the best of the region to each plate.

Our kitchen philosophy centres on respect for ingredients, minimal intervention, and bold flavours. We use local farmers and producers, and we pursue zero-waste practices wherever the kitchen allows.

The Card Room

Descend to our underground Card Room, where the spirit of classic poker comes alive in an intimate, sophisticated setting. The room is reserved for offline poker only, played with chips and never real money. Regular Texas Hold'em tournaments and events bring players together around the felt, while the restaurant above keeps the evening moving at its own pace.
