Riva Kitchen & Events

Nestled amongst the leafy riverside parkland of Northshore Hamilton, the Riva Kitchen & Events (owned by the same crew behind The Garden Room in the Roma Street Parklands) has converted the site formerly home to The River Room Cafe into a striking nosh spot and events space. Boasting an eye-catching contemporary fit-out designed by Studio A-N and built by Lowry Group, Riva looks to offer a comfortable destination for everything from lazy weekend breakfasts and quick coffee catch-ups to business lunches. Riva’s all-day dining menu of Australian classics with modern twists (all crafted with seasonal, local produce) offers something for every taste, while a tidy drinks selection includes coffee from Bear Bones on deck, as well as boozier tipples such as Australian wines and spritz-style drinks. With its near-unbeatable waterfront location, Riva is an in-demand location for functions, with packages for private group dining and exclusive venue bookings – think weddings and corporate events – also on offer.
