This Father’s Day, skip the usual pub lunch and take dad somewhere unexpected. DOLLY’s glamorous 1930’s European-inspired decor sets the scene for an unforgettable family outing, indulging dad in the effortless luxury he deserves.
On Sunday 6 September 2026, DOLLY will serve a four-course French lunch by Bordeaux-born, Michelin-trained Executive Chef Hervé Borghini in its underground dining room beneath Le Méridien Melbourne.
Priced at only $85 per person, the experience includes four considered courses and a complimentary welcome drink for each dad, with a choice of an Old Fashioned, beer or glass of wine.
Representing exceptional value within a five-star hotel setting, celebrating Father’s Day at DOLLY is an accessible way to make the day feel genuinely special.
Borghini’s cooking is grounded in classical French technique, delivered with the confident, modern approach that has defined DOLLY’s dining experience.
A menu of signature bistro favourites awaits; from freshly-shucked seasonal oysters and scallops spiced with ‘nduja, to DOLLY’s viral MB2 Porterhouse steak served with pomme purée and a Robert jus.
A sell-out each year, DOLLY’s Father’s Day Lunch has become one of the restaurant’s most popular annual events. This is dad’s chance to relax as the guest of honour, delivering a delightfully elegant dining experience he won’t forget.
Children under 12 may order from the à la carte kids’ menu, making the experience suitable for the whole family.
With limited seating available, advance reservations are essential.
