With over 20 years’ experience, Collier’s menu will include contemporary bistro style food, with a focus on featuring high quality local produce. Prices on the menu range in price from $16 – $34 for entrees and mains and from $10 for sweets, and include Fritto Misto (Crispy Local Catch of the Day, King Prawn, Zucchini Flowers & Malt Vinegar Spray), Our Pate (Organic Chicken Livers, Honeycomb, Toasted Sourdough) and Crema Catalana (with Summer Berries & Anise Biscuits).
No. 10 STORE, located on the ground floor in the Bullion Room, will operate as a florist and gift boutique of sorts, as well as offering espresso, breakfast, lunch and afternoon tea. Andrew Birley (head stylist at Fresh Catering) will manage Fresh Flowers & Style from No. 10 STORE, Fresh Catering’s in-house premium floral and styling service.

We look forward to working with Fresh to develop an innovative new dining and retail concept at The Mint as well as provide exceptional event services in two of the city’s most significant historic venues, strengthening our position as a unique venue operator.”
