Bloke & 4th
Home to The Food Dudes caterers and event creators Something&Monroe, Bloke&4th's buzz stems from food that is driven, local & made from scratch. A stylish destination for diners and social goers where guests can engage & indulge in a chic, contemporary atmosphere situated in the heart of King St W.
The menu is broken down into two sections; social apps and sweet endings. The 'Social Apps' are presented on hand crafted burl wood platters and have 3 to 6 pieces per order making them ideal for sharing and tasting as part of the social dining experience.
The resto-lounge is warm, yet sophisticated and boasts 2 wings. The East wing 'Bloke' is a stylish lounge that represents a space where urban sophistication meets artistic design and comfort. The West wing '4th' is a restaurant that features globally inspired menu offerings reinvented 4 times a year with emphasis on local and seasonal ingredients. Both wings of the venue gracefully morph into one 'Bloke and 4th' as the evening ensues

"First off I was a little tentative to go to Bloke & 4th having read the mixed reviews. My wife and I were there this past Saturday evening and had an amazing meal.
First impressions - WOW - is it ever dark in there! I could not read the menu very well and thanked myselft for having read it thoroughly online before arriving. I commented to our waiter about 30 minutes in that I thought my eyes had finally adjusted. He joked that he had developed sonar!
The food was amazing, and the portions were much larger than I expected. I had the Tuna and Salmon Tar Tare, Braised Veal Meatballs with polenta, and Bangkok Slaw. My wife had the Lettuce Wraps, Sliders & the Churros. I would recommend all of these dishes.
I'm sure that we will return."

"Myself and 3 girlfriends had reservations last Saturday night for dinner. The waiter was very helpful with food recommendations. The cocktails were delicious and the wine list was good too. We decided on a prix fix of 3 tappas each to share for a total of 12 for the table - we doubled up on some items (shrimp & sliders). The food was amazing and we didn't leave hungry. The price was reasonable as well. The only negative was that our reso was for 8:30pm and when they were starting to get ready for the "club" aspect of the night it was very distracting when they were moving chairs, tables, etc all around us, making us feel rushed."

"Overall we liked it. When I booked online a table for 2 was only possible at 6:30 or 8pm (I was hoping to get in at 7), so I booked for 8pm. However we went on Friday at 7 hoping to get in early and there was no issue getting a table, as the place was practically empty. Not a huge deal, but kind of puzzling."

"Terrible experience. Place only had 2 tables seated which included ours but took them 20minutes for drinks.
Was told to leave shortly as they needed the table for another group. We understood but the waitstaff weren't too friendly and it felt like they wanted us out the door as soon as we finished our plates.
Never coming back!"

"I had a fantastic evening here! This is an excellent restaurant for foodies and anyone who likes to try multiple items without being overly stuffed. It is the perfect spot for a romantic evening with a loved one or even for a large group because of the fun atmosphere. The different flavors in each dish as well as presentation is definitely something worth coming to sample. We had a very friendly and knowledgeable server who took amazing care of us. We are definitely excited to come back again."

"Hit Bloke & 4th on for Winterlicious. Food was delicious and unique in taste/prep (chilli shrimp paired with mango, pork belly in a sweet/savoury glaze, etc.). The service was attentive and courteous (the waitstaff even recommended some cocktails to complement the meal choices). Well-decorated, with a bit of a UK underground vibe (probably more suited for a bar-lounge than a restaurant). You can tell that food/restaurant service isn't the venues primary function. It's definitely more inclined for a post-11PM crowd. The acoustics are meant to enhance noise, and there's always a dull roar of surrounding conversations that threatens to overpower the discussions at your own table. Still, a fun experience and would recc' for Winterlicious."

"Amazing experience! We went to try their winterlicious menu and was not disappointed. The food was flavourful and delicious. Portion size was a little small for the price, but no complaints otherwise. Wait staff were friendly and very attentive. Beautiful decor within the restaurant itself. Give it a go, you won't be disapponted!"

"Food was great and really well presented. The service was exceptional! Our waiter was very attentive and courteous. The only complaint is you can feel that this isn't a restaurant but more of a night club instead. It was freezing inside due to all the open space."

"This supperclub serves food tapas style which means the ideal people to go with are friends/partners/etc with similar palates. I went with a friend who is vegetarian and this menu offered just one vegetarian option per course (though each was very good) so was left with the daunting task of eating each of my selections in their entirety which proved to be slightly overwhelming. I started with the spicy tar tare, followed by the apple wood smoked pork belly, and finished off with the PB&J Bombs. The peanut butter & jelly bombs were good but I could only make it through one of the two of them, this could have easily been shared but my friend and I weren't expecting two each so we each ordered it."
