37 Little Collins St, Melbourne VIC 3000, Australia
Bathed in natural light by day and glowing softly by night, Bar Lourinhã’s upstairs private dining room is defined by a magnificent arched window overlooking Melbourne’s iconic laneways. During daylight hours, the room feels open and airy; as evening falls, the streetlights create an intimate, atmospheric backdrop that is unmistakably Melbourne.
Dressed with crisp white linen tables and infused with Iberian–Mediterranean ambience and flair, the space feels both elegant and inviting. Situated upstairs, the private dining room is a natural extension of our main restaurant — carrying the same energy, warmth, and sense of occasion that has defined Bar Lourinhã for over two decades.
Menus are centred around our chef’s shared feasts, showcasing the very best of local, seasonal produce and bold Iberian flavours, designed to bring people together around the table.
With a one-hat reputation held for 20 years, Bar Lourinhã is known for warm, generous hospitality and quietly confident service — ensuring every private event feels relaxed, personal, and beautifully considered.

Reviews for Bar Lourinhã
Anna sánchez
Spanish-Portuguese fusion restaurant in the heart of Melbourne, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere that feels just like being in Spain. Excellent tapas, perfect for sharing and full of authentic flavor. The staff is very attentive and friendly. Great selection of drinks and wines to complement the meal.

The tapas were incredible flavor. Typically I care about portions, but the flavor was so good, that I was so impressed. Joanna our waitress was phenomenal. Kind, thorough, and friendly. Great outdoor space.

Came here for a wedding lunch and it was amazing. Every dish that came out was really good. I can’t really comment on the service this time as it was an event, but I’m sure they’re just as welcoming and friendly during regular dining.

Everything from the snacks to the starters was absolutely delicious — especially the potato gnocchi, which was so good I’d go back just for that. We really enjoyed the experience… until the steak arrived. Unfortunately, the rump steak was incredibly tough — I couldn’t even chew through a bite, and it ended up tiring my jaw. My partner finished it because we didn’t want to waste food, but it was a disappointing end to an otherwise lovely meal. Hence the four stars.

I have wanted to go to Bar Lourinhã for ages, and now I regret not going sooner! The vibe is effortlessly cool yet welcoming, you feel instantly at home the moment you walk in. The food? Insanely good. The octopus was tender and full of flavour, and the duck was rich and perfectly cooked, absolute standouts. The service was warm and genuine, making the whole experience feel special. Melbourne, you have done it again, this spot is pure magic.
