Coupette Corner Bistro & Bar

Coupette Corner Bistro & Bar opened this month inside the new Hannah St Hotel in Southbank, joining four other venues operated by The Mulberry Group. The bistro leans into the "good Australian hotel restaurant" trend, offering elevated casual fare built around local produce such as Port Phillip Bay snapper and Victorian pork. Its Euro‑style interior, designed by Flack Studios, blends timber, brass, mirrors and travertine to create a casually glamorous dining room. The drinks program pairs Old World wines from Victorian wineries with Australian‑distilled cocktails featuring native ingredients.
