Overview
Some days in the office, it can feel like the only thing worth thinking about is where to go for lunch. But with even the most basic options often accompanied by an eye-watering price, perhaps you'd be better off just bringing a sandwich from home.
However, the recent arrival of Melbourne Winery on Flinders Lane means your lunch could taste better than ever with an unbeatable price to match. Now presenting Express Lunch Lane every Monday–Friday from 12-3pm, trudging into work each day just became so much easier.
Featuring a rotating menu of standout options from just $19, you'd expect the dishes up for grabs to fetch a steeper price tag — not that we're unhappy about it. Think a smashed wagyu beef burger with fries; gnocchi alla vodka with soft ricotta; and a beef short-rib toastie with celeriac remoulade.
These options are complemented by an ever-changing cast of fish and steak dishes, alongside big-flavour salads. Plus, this stellar lunch deal also includes a glass of wine, beer or soft drink. Designed for speed, flavour and walk-ins, you'll be dreaming about taking your lunch break as soon as you arrive at the office.
Opened at the end of April, Melbourne Winery is looking to shake up the culinary scene with a fresh take on how we indulge in a glass of vino. Located inside the heritage-listed Ross House, beyond the Express Lunch Lane, this sprawling destination is keen to flip the script on what visitors know about wine and dining.
For instance, the venue's innovative dining concept sees wine, not food, become the focal point of your meal, with each dish designed to pair with an expansive vino collection. Meanwhile, a host of interactive masterclasses and a creative cultural program will explore the ins and outs of wine, while inspiring guests to expand their palate.
Melbourne Winery's Express Lunch Lane runs Monday–Friday from 12–3pm at 247 Flinders Lane, Melbourne. Head to the website for more information.
