A Canberra Institution

OUR STORY

Located in the Melbourne Building, in the first separate titled tenancy to be built in the historic building, Charcoal Restaurant is Canberra’s oldest restaurant. It has been operating continuously since it first opened in 1962, and continues to cater to the capital’s steak lovers, as it has done for over five decades. With its original interior still intact, Charcoal Restaurant is a Canberra institution; a step back in time to the days of  Rat Pack aesthetic and classic twentieth century charm.

Our menu

A showcase of the very best in fresh local produce, The Charcoal Restaurant Canberra is one of only a handful of canberra restaurants that provide an exclusive selection of world-class steak cuts from Oakley Angus Reserve, Australia’s leader in premium beef.

With one of the most extensive selections of grain fed Angus steak cuts that are succulent, tender and full of flavour. The Charcoal Restaurant offers steak fans a truly special dining experience.
