Marion Wine Bar

This has been an amazing experience? The food was amazing and the staff are so friendly helpful and knowledgeable! We started by having oysters, wine and apple cider they were great! The whitebait sandwich was really nice and I loved the sauce Mussel cucumber was amazing and refreshing and I loved it Tuna was nice and my favourite was the baked pipe Rigate in vodka sauce! Sooo yum Great shoutout to the girl who served us! She was amazing and recommended a lot of good stuff! we were setting at the kitchen bar at 5:45 on 2nd of Jan 2026! I hope she gets noticed!

The atmosphere was incredible! so calm and chill, it honestly felt like sitting in nature on a spring day. The service was extremely professional and attentive, always making sure everything was going smoothly. The food was also very good and quite original. The standout for me was the Danish asparagus; absolutely delicious. The baked pasta was a bit more standard for a place like this, and while the meat had great flavor, it was slightly chewy. Even with that, the overall experience is a solid five stars, and I’d definitely come back. They also have an excellent wine list, and it’s a fantastic spot to enjoy a special moment and celebrate. Keep it up!

Had a beautiful time here with some friends. Service was great and food was delicious. We got the bread, anchovy toast, mussels, asparagus danish, duck fritz, basked pasta and the beans. Got one of every dessert too! Everything was so good we couldn't pick a highlight but would order it all again tomorrow. Highly recommend

wow wow wow!!! Marion really is worth all the hype and more. Food was absolutely divine, cooked to perfection and beautiful flavours. Service was super friendly and warm, everyone had smiles on their faces and happy to help. Ambience was so fun and vibes were amazing. A real gem of melbourne, highly highly highly recommend.

Just WOW! The worst thing about this restaurant was that we had to wait 2.5 hours for a table. Visiting Melbourne from sydney and my daughter found this gem. We had the most wonderful late lunch at Marion after a stroll down Gertrude street. So we couldn’t decide what to eat! Ordered a fabulous bottle of French rose while we decided. Stares with kingfish crisp Ina citrus horseradish delishessness sauce. Asparagus was crunchy and fresh. The flatbread to insane. To end the starters we had the leek tart. We completed the feast with the pasta regati with vodka sauce with a side of fresh leaves dressed simply but perfect. The staff were very helpful and welcoming. The brûlée was the right ending. Amazing the numbers of sitting this venue does must be huge. Loved!

Stunning restaurant! We enjoyed every bit of this place—from the atmosphere and the service to, undoubtedly, the food. The flatbread was the star. We loved it so much that we ordered it twice. The vodka pasta and the pork cutlet were great too. We sat outside as we didn’t have a reservation, but it did not disappoint. The indoor seating looked lovely as well. They also have a great wine selection. Couldn’t recommend it more!

The flatbread was sensational (but small so we ordered a second). I didn’t particularly enjoy the dessert and the larger dishes came out staggered I assume owing to us being on shared bench seating that probably wouldn’t have accommodated multiple plates. This wasn’t ideal for us as we weren’t intending to share them. Regardless service was very friendly and whilst I was nervous about not having a reservation arriving at 5.30pm did the trick to secure a table. Great atmosphere befitting of a date night and definitely a high calibre venue on the Melbourne wine bar scene

Had a wonderful dining experience at Marion! The food and drinks were absolutely amazing, and the staff served us with such warmth and friendly smiles throughout the night. We tried the Chef’s Selection for this visit — highly recommend it for first-timers, as it gives you a chance to taste all the popular and highly rated dishes. Everything was beautifully presented and delicious. Overall, a very pleasant experience — we’ll definitely be back again!

A chic, small, yet vibrant modern restaurant located in the heart of Fitzroy! Once again, we brought our team member to dine here with us as a thank you gesture, and we were honestly proud of our choice. The food is undeniably good and their service is top notch! The friendly staff have impressive skills with carrying the dishes. We ordered quite a lot of food and they did not disappoint! Marion is a great little bar to visit during the day that you can nibble through as you enjoy your wine sipping session. Their wine collection is absolutely CRAZY - come visit and find out yourself!

Good vibe for brunch, lunch or evening wine and tapas. Very creative yet refined menu. Stopped in for a small plate and glass of wine. Great for a group of 6 or less. Order: Chilled mussel salad in a citrus vinaigrette and the BREAD WTH!!! Best bread I've ever eaten. Should've asked what kind it was but if i could eat that bread every day I would! Really good service as well.

All hail the King of Hospo! Andrew McConnel, or A-Mac as I like to call him (as if to imply we are best buddies, which we totally aren't) has done it again with Marion. Serving up an ever changing menu of seasonal tasty plates and a wine list that makes me excited to be alive, Marion is the kind of place I wish was my local. Fitzroy is fast becoming THE wine bar suburb of Melbourne with Bar Clarine, Bar Liberty, Hell of the North and the ever lovable and reliable Enoteca all serving up terrific wine by the glass and bottle along with solid food offerings. If you wanted to you could jump around multiple venues in a night having a glass and a bite at each, a kind of progressive dinner. But back to Marion... it's lovely. The food and wine is top notch but what I really want to tell you about is the service. It's friendly, knowledgable and efficient. Each guest is made to feel special but not fawned over and the pace of the experience is perfectly suited to what you're in the mood for. Up for some wine nerd chat? You've got it! Want to be left alone so you can stare in to your eyes of your beloved? No worries! Want to be told what to order and drink so you can be delighted and surprised? Easy. Waiters who can read what you need, and give it to you, are as rare as hens teeth, but A-Mac attracts some of the best staff in this city and it's always a pleasure to dine in any of his establishments because of this. 5 stars.

What a lovely wine bar! We came here for date night and could not have been more pleased. The service was helpful and attentive and suggested a beautiful wine for us. We ordered quite a few things off the menu and all of the food was delicious, too. Definitely look forward to returning.

Always a lovely experience at Marion, my partner and I chose this place for a relaxing dinner and wine. The staff have great knowledge about their wine and food selection, it's nice to have a trip to another continent for a couple of hours. Highly recommend for any occasion.

Excellent quality wine with a large list plus interesting light food. Minimalist space that can get a bit noisy. Nice addition to the area.

One word, phenomenal. This is from the same restaurant group as Supernormal and Cumulus Inc. Which are by far the best restaurants in Melbourne, CBD area. The food is fantastic, taste and presentation is at the same level as Supernormal. Staff is knowledgeable on the wines and after we tasted three wines we didn't fancy, they suggested one more wine that wasn't on the menu here (they pulled it from the fine dining restaurant next door that is apart of the same group) and the wine was exactly what we wanted. Food was superb. Highly recommended.

Wonderful location, incredible and extensive wine list. Great service- I recommend sitting outside late on a summers day. Expensive - but all of high quality and beautiful glassware.

Once again Andrew is crushing it. Along with his other fine establishments and neighbouring Cutler & Co, Marion is an exceptional and welcome addition to the family. As with the others, this too caters well for the solo diner with exceptional plate value and brilliantly attentative staff. Food was, of course, on point as expected with numerous offerings which tantalized and intrigued. Bonus points for the unhesistant opening of a noteworthy magnum for by-the-glass enjoyment. Definitely added to the ever-growing list of rotating regulars.
