01 / The experience
Bring a group together over shared plates.
A lively Flinders Lane dining room for Southeast Asian sharing plates and a group meal in the CBD.
Make Chin Chin a lively CBD meal during your Melbourne stay. The Flinders Lane restaurant suits a table that wants to share dishes and make dinner part of the evening’s conversation. Choose it for the energy of a busy dining room and a meal together, allowing enough time for everyone to return from Melbourne Park and arrive at the same service.
The restaurant opens for lunch and dinner daily from 11:00, with walk-ins welcome alongside bookings. A non-tennis lunch makes the timing easier if you are exploring the CBD. After tennis, a reservation gives the group a more useful meeting point than a plan to queue with no clear dining time.
Groups of six or more must take the Feed Me menu; larger groups of twenty-one or more should contact the events team. Agree the menu format, dietary requirements and expected spend before reserving. Sunday carries a surcharge. Check the exact cancellation conditions and seating length in your confirmation, and leave room for the journey back to your hotel after a long venue day.
