Who we are
About
Dacha Bar & Grill brings the warmth of Eastern European hospitality to a modern Australian dining experience — a place to gather, relax and share great food in the heart of Dendy Park, Brighton East.
Chef-led culinary concept
Sebastian McQuarrie
Dacha’s culinary concept is led by executive chef Sebastian McQuarrie. Inspired by Melbourne’s vibrant dining culture and the timeless ritual of gathering around the table, his vision is simple: honest food, exceptional quality and genuine hospitality.
Our Philosophy
Every dish begins
Inspired by Eastern European traditions and Australian produce, we bring people together with handcrafted dishes, charcoal-grilled flavours and warm hospitality.
We celebrate seasonality, simplicity and flavour. From our grill to your table.
The name “Dacha” was created by our chef to reflect what this place is for: warmth, connection and the tradition of gathering around the table. Set within Club Bayside and surrounded by parkland, the venue pairs spacious indoor and outdoor areas with panoramic windows — and convenient parking on site.
The menu combines modern European techniques with the rich traditions of Eastern European cuisine: premium produce, charcoal-grilled specialities and fresh seafood, complemented by carefully selected wines and cocktails from the full bar.
From long lunches through after-work drinks and late dinners, every dish balances tradition and innovation — generous, honest and made for sharing.
