Middle Eastern-inspired escape

International|Great for groups|Casual dining
Welcome to Layal, Crown Melbourne’s newest Middle Eastern-inspired escape. 
Bold flavours and fragrant aromas transport you to the heart of Arabia, with a menu designed around sharing—mezze plates, smoky grills, and dishes layered with authentic spices and fresh ingredients. 
Pair it with cocktails that take their cue from Middle Eastern traditions, infused with botanicals and a touch of intrigue in every sip. 
When the mood calls for something extra, head to the balcony overlooking the Riverwalk and Melbourne’s sparkling skyline – the perfect spot to watch the sunset and linger late into the night. At Layal, every moment invites you to relax, connect, and savour the experience.
