The Moat

About

The Moat brings beautiful food and wine, and relaxed service to the great books, writing and ideas flourishing in the Wheeler Centre and State Library above.

Story

Tucked beneath Melbourne's iconic State Library, The Moat is an intimate escape away from the city rush. Styled by Christo Gillard, with us you can enjoy worldly food and wine among 19th century bluestone walls, our homely courtyard, and the timeless literature housed above.

We have a range of flexible spaces for private functions, from banquet meals to canape and cocktail. We often host our own event nights, celebrating creativity with gorgeous wine, cocktails, and dining experiences.

We also play host for events programmed by the Wheeler Centre and its resident organisations, as well as the State Library, and many of Melbourne's festivals and events. Check out our website and sign up to our mailing list for all the details.



"Enjoy an Italian escape at The Moat, an intimate haven in the heart of Melbourne.Our new menu reflects the Italian heritage of our two owners, Paul and Rosie.Together, they have created authentic dishes that are hand-made with seasonal local produce, simplicity and love.Our family welcomes yours to join us. Benvenuto a The Moat."

Can’t fault my experience here; great food, excellent vibe on a cold winter night, top service and delicious food & drinks. The old fashioned that I had was done and presented well. Every aspect was just done really well. I generally don’t eat gnocchi often but the one I had was tasty and had great consistency.
Great little discovery this one. The restaurant bar is located down stairs in a basement under the state library. Awesome eclectic relaxed vibe, staff are super friendly. We went for drinks, Awesome drinks selection. They know how to make cocktails. We must try for dinner.
Lovley little find. We arrived without booking and luckily we managed to get a table. The staff are terrific and will explain menu and give advice on dishes. The food was amazing and good portion sizes, they don't rush courses which is good great ambience and relaxing atmosphere definitely highly recommend and not over priced.Food: 5/5
So good to have Melbourne open again!! We hadn't been to The Moat for about six months but as usual it didn't disappoint. For all you plant lovers, the menu has mouthwatering vegan options for entrée, mains and desert. The vegan lasagna is GOOD! The staff were friendly, courteous and lovely and the venue is amazing and romantic as ever. Thanks for a great night out. Rob n Tiff x
Rosie and Paul have provided an amazing catering service for our event at the Wheeler Centre. The booking and communication was seamless. The service and timing was amazing. And the food was just fantastic - very yummy and so well presented and managed. We had less guests than anticipated and to avoid the wastage of food they even managed organising food donation on our behalf. Highly recommend it for your future events.
We held our engagement party here on Saturday evening and I cannot speak more highly of the venue, the staff and the food. Rosie was incredible during the planning process, Ted was exceptional with set up and anticipating all of our guest’s needs, and all of the kitchen staff made food that our guests could not stop raving about as well as accomodating a number of dietary requirements. Thank you so much for a fabulous night, and if you’re thinking of holding a function here, I highly recommend!
Thank you for hosting us and our delegates for multiple events during our City of Literature Network Meeting 2022, The Moat! The Moat is a literary institution for good reason. Whenever we were there, they plied us with delicious food, drink and lots of warm smiles. The service was attentive, friendly and went beyond our already high expectations.
Happy hour drinks tasted watered down, which is a shame. Regardless the happy hour prices were awesome and its a bit of a hidden gem right in the CBD. Would be great on a warm summer day!
finally, every time i passing this bar and never have the chance to get in. it’s lucky for us, it was a table for us. tried their tiramisu , sooo good , the waiter was soo nice and sweet, she is funny too what a lovely place and all the decorations are so cute!!
Wonderful restaurant with a quiet but nice atmosphere. Friendly and attentive service. The food was delicious and they have an excellent cocktail menu. This place would be excellent for date night or celebrating a special occasion.
