Cinder

Cinder Cinder is a celebration of dry-aged meat, fresh seasonal produce and cooking over fire. We welcome all people for all occasions.

Nestled within the bluestone walls of the 150-year-old Terminus in North Fitzroy, Cinder by Jake Furst is a celebration of cooking with flame and fire. Rich hues of teal and burnt orange beautifully offset exposed bluestone, in a space that combines casual fine dining with the warmth of traditional hospitality. At the heart of the kitchen lies the mighty wood-fired Josper Grill, delivering the unm

istakable qualities of cooking over fire to a modern Australian menu. For the brave and curious, pull up a seat at the Chef's Table where there are no menus and no two visits are the same.
