A go-to local spot in Dunedin, Commons Eatery is a warm and inviting all-day spot with a fresh, modern feel. The cosy indoor space blends mid-century charm with contemporary touches, while the stylish heated outdoor area lets diners soak up the summer sun or stay comfortable when the temperature drops.
The lunch menu is packed full of delicious dishes. The slow roast beef, french dip sandwich with gruyere cheese and jalapeños will warm you up, or the flatiron chicken, creamed potato, confit garlic and rosemary jus will not disappoint.
The evening menu is designed for sharing, offering a contemporary European twist on classic flavours. Expect a tempting selection of medium and large plates, from the utterly delicious diced fish ceviche to the crispy lamb shoulder. If greens are more your thing, hearty salads like the roast chicken and baby gem salad strike the perfect balance between fresh and filling.
No meal is complete without something sweet, and the chocolate peanut butter fondant with vanilla ice cream is a must-try. They’re also more than happy to accommodate dietary needs, so don’t hesitate to ask.
With its welcoming atmosphere and a kitchen known for its imaginative, flavour-packed dishes, Commons Eatery is always worth a visit. Drop by and see what the team is cooking up next!
