Harbour Kitchen – the Premier Summer Function Venue in Melbourne

The ocean has always held a special fascination for us and, during the summer, this really comes to the fore. Melburnians, like most Australians, love to spend time on the beach, on the coast or on the waterfront. Melburnians also love to socialise, to eat, drink and be merry, and Harbour Kitchen offers the best of both worlds. It is through offering this combination that we’ve become the most sought after function venue in Melbourne for all manner of celebrations and events.

Our summers tend to be long and hot, and the sparkling water of Victoria Harbour offers some respite from the heat. The Harbour Kitchen takes full advantage of the ocean, with a waterfront setting that offers sweeping views and plenty of space both inside and out. Its a stunning spot to host a function or celebration of any description.

The waterfront location also offers both proximity and seclusion from the bustle of the CBD. Just a short and enjoyable stroll down the Yarra river, or a free ride on multiple tram routes, you and your friends can be enjoying the stunning setting of the Harbour Kitchen within minutes of leaving the very centre of Melbourne.

Once you’ve made your way to the finest waterfront function venue in Melbourne, you and your guests can enjoy a fantastic array of food and beverages. The Harbour Kitchen range of sandwiches, fruit and cheese platters and canapés are a perfect way to reenergise and the extensive selection of drinks will quench even the greatest summer thirst.

Summer is the season of celebration in Melbourne. As the working calendar comes to an end and Christmas and New Years Eve approach, we all have a myriad of reasons to unwind and enjoy ourselves. And there’s no better place to do so than The Harbour Kitchen. Once you’ve secured a date at the premier function venue in Melbourne, you can be sure that your friends, family or colleagues will enjoy all that our magical setting has to offer.
