Peter Rowland & Marriott Docklands | Culinary Partnership
“We are thrilled to be pioneering this global-first collaboration between PRG and Marriott International.”
MICHELLE BIDDLE, CEO, PETER ROWLAND GROUP
“We are thrilled to be pioneering this global-first collaboration between PRG and Melbourne Marriott Hotel Docklands as their exclusive food and beverage partner.” explains Michelle Biddle, CEO, Peter Rowland Group
“As we emerge from our pandemic pause, we are rapidly opening more everyday dining options that will continue to expand our customer base. You will start to see PRG behind more food retail and dining outlets that range from concept cafés and pop-up activations, through to fine dining and lounge bars to complement our portfolio of function and event venues.”
“This collaboration allows us to really showcase a range of dining options and the PRG culinary expertise within the one hotel. We’re thrilled to be at the forefront of reconnecting Melbourne to the timeless art of classic hotel dining.”
Ada’s
“We describe Ada’s as ‘classic with a twist.” Dhaval Soni, Food and Beverage Manager. You can indulge on what you’d expect to find in an old-world hotel lobby bar, finessed by the signature Peter Rowland touch. The cocktail list reflects a heady mix of classics but if guests have something in mind, the PRG mixologists can create bespoke cocktails to order. Ada’s will also offer an extensive list of non-alcoholic cocktails inspired by Seedlips’ botanical range.
Must Try Drink: Ada Coleman’s signature cocktail, the ‘Hanky Panky’ – a combination of gin, sweet vermouth and fernet branca.
Must Try Dish: Mini Great Ocean Road duck jaffles with house made parfait and plum sauce.
“Archer’s”
Head Chef Alex Drobysz (Maze (London), Lumiere (Vancouver), Epocha (Carlton), Byerley (Flemington Racecourse)) brings Michelin Star experience and creativity to Archer’s menus – which are inspired by locally grown and sourced produce.
“We are going beyond paddock to plate and further than farm to fork. We are canvassing rooftops for honey, and laneways for artisan product. We are dedicated to forming deep relationships with our producers and collaborating with them to highlight the very best of the season.”
Before 11am, the stunning, modern mist-grey, all-day dining room offers a generous a la carte breakfast (inspired by the award-winning brunch menus Melbourne is internationally known for) or a unique buffet breakfast, personally presented to you, at your table. Lunch and dinner feature 2 and 3 course menus along with an ever-changing seasonal tasting menu.
Must Try Dish: Tea-smoked butterfish with candied eggplant and grenobloise sauce.
Must Try Drink: New York Penicillin 24 – local whisky, fresh lemon, house made ginger syrup, and honey-infused water made from Spirited Lot in Mornington – designed and produced specifically for this cocktail.
“Sunset House”
Gold design accents ensure the space practically glows whilst you work your way through the extensive Spritz-obsessed cocktail list. Peckish? We’ve got snacks specifically designed for grazing, sharing or enjoying entirely to yourself.
Featuring west-facing floor to ceiling windows, Sunset House provides the perfect vantage point to celebrate the arrival of the afternoon sun through to its nightly setting beyond the horizon. It’s a place to start the night, or end the night, or for a visit anytime in between.
Must Try Drink: The Everleigh Bottling Co. range of Spritz – including Fruit Cup, Palomita, Americano and French 75.
Must Try Snack: McIvor Farm pork “Katsu Sando” with Bulldog sauce.
“Corsia”
And now, something to eat. “Expect to find generous rows of classic pastries, filled Italian breads, and jars of freshly baked biscotti, alongside crisp-fresh salad selections rich in greens and grains.” David Albert, Executive Chef.
Must Try Drink: St Ali coffee – roasted right here in Melbourne
Must Try Snack: Our Italian-inspired dessert range including chocolate bomboloni with strawberry crème, cannoli filled with caramelised orange ricotta, and watermelon and goats milk panna cotta.
“Event Spaces”

These brand new, unique spaces will raise the standard of hotel-based functions to a level not before seen in this city. Each space is completely customisable – ensuring that whatever our clients are celebrating, we have the ability to offer a tailor-made solution.
“The menus are quintessentially Peter Rowland, so expect to enjoy countless chicken sandwiches at each conference and dine on restaurant-quality dishes at each event. All delivered with the five-star service our clients and guests have come to expect from us.” Matthew Haigh, Chief of Culinary.
