About Courgette

Courgette is a modern European fine-dining restaurant on Marcus Clarke Street in Civic. The dining room is plush and quiet, with deep lounge-style chairs and a garden outlook that suits long, unhurried meals. Alongside the main room are five private spaces. The Garden Room seats 35 to 46 guests with views over a maple tree garden, and it is the room set aside for celebrations and larger functions. The Executive Boardroom seats 22 to 30 behind glass walls with timber panelling and a feature glass wall, with no room charge at its minimum. The Boardroom seats 14 to 20 and is fully private, and a 75-inch screen can be hired for presentations. For smaller groups, the Cellar Room seats 8 to 10 among more than 400 bottles of wine, and the Private Garden Room seats 7 to 9 with its own small garden. Every room is served the restaurant's set menus. At lunch, groups choose two or three courses or the five-course degustation, while dinner is three courses or the degustation, including a vegetarian version. The kitchen caters for all dietary requirements. Wines come from a list drawn from around the world, and BYO wine is not accepted in the private rooms. Each room has a minimum number of guests, charged at the per-person food price.
