About the restaurant
Maison Bâtard is a French-inspired café and wine bar where Melbourne’s food culture meets Parisian flair. Mornings begin with flaky croissants and expertly brewed coffee, while lunch and dinner bring classics like raclette toasties, coq au vin, and duck fat potatoes. The wine list leans heavily French, with natural and biodynamic options proudly featured. The space is effortlessly chic, with mustard tones, tiled floors, and a welcoming terrace. Whether for a midday tartine, a lazy apéro, or a dinner over wine and chatter, Maison Bâtard captures the laid-back charm of an inner-city French hideaway.
