Let us take care of you! Trading Hours Lunch Friday, Saturday, Sunday 12 – onward Dinner Wednesday – Sunday 6pm – late The Commoner Ethos Offering a menu and ambiance inspired by the honesty, seasonality, and skill found in modern British cooking, The Commoner is firmly and proudly embedded within its local setting – one that happily mirrors both the produce and seasons found in Europe. The Commoner provides a uniquely local approach to traditional British cooking. All our produce is sourced (or foraged) as locally as possible and the team takes particular delight in creating everything on site; from our daily baked bread that welcomes you, to the clotted cream poured lovingly over your dessert… The Commoner has created a space where people can enjoy truly beautiful food and wine, served with genuine warmth and hospitality. The Commoner first opened her doors in 2009, presenting a uniquely British addition to the existing restaurant scene in Melbourne. Five years later, we are very proud of the reputation we have built within this city’s vibrant and progressive food scene for our distinctive blend of honest seasonal cooking and progressive kitchen skills. From humble beginnings, The Commoner has grown to incorporate the garden courtyard and versatile upper floor spaces that are all available to accommodate most styles of events and groupings of diners and provide an intimate and unique dining experience.
