Dining in Melbourne can be a fabulous experience, especially aboard our famous fleet of historical
trams that have become the Collonial Tramcar Restaurant. These glossy, burgundy restaurants on
wheels are the first travelling Tramcar Restaurants in the world and ensure a delightful
innovative approach to dinning. As they cruise the scenic streets of Melbourne, diners can enjoy
our fine cuisine and drink the very best of Australian wines or make a selection of beverages from
our fully stocked bar at an all inclusive price.
The atmosphere is cosy, the service friendly and the decor as inviting as the colonial period
these trams reflect. Since their inception in 1983, the restaurants have become a star attraction
and a tourist symbol for Melbourne. So, dining is not only a culinary delight, but a trip into a
little piece of Victoria's history. To dine on the Colonial Tramcar Restaurant is to dine in
luxury.
