At the laidback residential end of Commercial Road, The Hotel Max has the bare brick exterior of a funked-up pub and the interior of a charming French-themed restaurant. Enjoy classically inspired French cuisine served with a personal touch by husband-and-wife owners and chefs Brendon Mitchell and Katie Krauss-Mitchell, amid framed rococo-style paintings and subtle opera music. The menu shifts seasonally and the wine list features an extensive range of Australian and international wines that complement dishes such as freshly shucked oysters, homemade gravlax or a cheese platter of Roche Baron and Gabriel Coulet Roquefort. With outdoor seating available for people-watching hipsters and indoor seating for chilled-out patrons, The Hotel Max is true to its motto of "eat well, drink well and have fun".
Chef: Katie Krauss-Mitchell
