Private Dining Room at The Lincoln

91 Cardigan Street, Carlton, 3053
Melbourne Central Station (600 m)

About this space

Our stunning new Private Dining Room is a hop and skip away, two doors down from the pub. Set within a beautiful Victorian terrace shopfront, the space has been transformed into the perfect spot for your next function. With AV facilities and QR codes at the tables for guests to order and pay for drinks individually if preferred, our Private Dining Room can host a range of events including boardroom meetings, indulgent luncheons and intimate dinners.

The lovely low-lit Private Dining Room has the warmth of a wood-panelled bar and elegance of high ceilings in a deep midnight blue, all overseen by an original 40-year old vintage poster by Bernard Villemot of figures dancing and leaping with joy with their Orangina soda, an absolute showstopper in its scale. It makes it one of Melbourne’s most secluded and beautiful Private Dining Rooms.

This is the ultimate space for good eating, drinking and celebrating with your nearest and dearest. Whatever the occasion, make it truly special here.

About The Lincoln

Tucked on the corner of Queensberry and Cardigan Streets in Carlton, Melbourne’s favourite pub, The Lincoln, is an award-winning and historic pub open since 1854, that has retained a charming old-world facade and an interior brimming with character. A Critic’s Pick in The Age Good Food Guide 2024, The Lincoln is loved by our loyal regulars, perfect for functions and a favourite within the hospitality industry.

Our kitchen is led by Michelin-trained chef, Richard Hayes. Our beer and wine offerings change regularly, so there is always something new and interesting to discover.

Our art-deco bar is a throwback to Melbourne’s past, with a charming open fireplace, and bar stools that have been propping up punters for years. The deeply atmospheric space and aesthetic details recall a bygone era. If the tan and green terrazzo tiled bar could talk, they could tell some stories!

We have a new beautifully refurbished Private Dining Room known as “The Lincoln Arms” located at 138 Queensberry Street that offers much sought-after privacy while still offering the same excellent service, food and drinks.

With an intimate private dining room, The Lincoln is a labour of love for our team, with an uncompromising commitment to simply delicious food and drinks, a warm welcome and a relaxed feel. We are a pub that has stood the test of time and remains one of the best in Melbourne. Come see for yourselves!
