The Gem Bar & Dining Room

Book Direct with the Owner at The Gem Bar & Dining Room in Collingwood with Great Ocean Road Restaurant for all your restaurant and entertainment needs.

The Gem Bar & Dining in Collingwood has a whole lot of soul – and it’s not just coming from its regular live music gigs. A local favourite, The Gem is where old world America comes to life; 50s rock, country and western and rockabilly are all in full swing, exuded by vintage style signs and wood panelled walls plastered with posters of pinup girls, concert flyers and the king himself, Elvis Presley. Having taken your fill of soul, feed up on pub grub favourites with a modern touch, as in Southern style delights like Texas fries with chopped jalapenos, melted cheese, spring onions and chipotle aioli, or for a meaty main, the Kentucky black lamb shoulder from the pit packs a punch as does the southern fried eggplant burger; be sure to finish with a fried apple pie with salted apple cream.
