dinner club @Mantells
Every now and then, an opportunity comes along to open a door that is usually kept firmly closed. As you know, our incredible venue is typically reserved strictly for private events and is closed to the public. But we want to share this space more often. So it’s a chance to experience Mantells a little differently — occasional casual open dining days featuring beautiful food, thoughtful hospitality, at the original and only Mantells - signature space, without needing to hire the venue privately.
What to expect
A social & very fun evening, seated at shared long tables, with great company. Held on selected dates only, these Dinner Club dining experiences are a chance to enjoy the food, atmosphere, and service Mantells is known for in a more relaxed, casual restaurant-style setting.
Restaurant Days bring that same food philosophy to the forefront, with a curated set menu designed to be shared. Good honest food. Thoughtful, beautifully presented, and full of flavour — just as it should be.
Due to the nature of this Dinner Club event - bookings are essential - with limited space. Pre-Paid Tickets are $75 per person for the set menu and then drinks can be purchased on the night. We will open from 6pm for anyone wanting to pop in earlier for a pre dinner drink, then having everyone seated at 7pm.
Seriously good food, in a VERY SOCIAL format
