Studley Park Boathouse, Riverside restaurant in Kew, Australia.
Studley Park Boathouse is a riverside restaurant in Kew with three separate dining spaces, each positioned to overlook the Yarra River. The spaces run along the shoreline, with one section situated directly against the water's edge.
Founded over 160 years ago, this boathouse is the oldest continuously operating public boathouse on the Yarra River. It has served Melbourne residents and visitors across multiple generations.
The restaurant grounds itself in Melbourne's identity through seasonal ingredients sourced locally and a wine selection that features only Victorian producers.
The restaurant sits on Boathouse Road in Kew with parking available on site and good access via public transport or car. It is best to book ahead, particularly during weekends and pleasant weather when it becomes busier.
The Conservatory section offers seating beneath old English elm trees that create a shaded canopy overhead. The Pergola area sits mere meters from the water's edge, creating an uncommonly close connection to the river.
