Essence at The Tradies

The Tradies is no ordinary club and Essence is certainly not your usual club bistro. Situated in the heart of the Dickson food precinct, Essence has evolved to become the destination for those seeking that rare and valued combination of truly excellent meals served in convivial surrounds at the right price-point. In continued dedication to supporting Canberra's truly remarkable local produce the wine sold is a product of Canberra's nationally renowned cool-climate winemakers, from local icons Graeme Shaw and Tim Kirk to Riesling champion Ken Helm and rising star Nick O'Leary. The Tradies is the only Canberra club where local wines are sold exclusively and the Essence wine list is a roll-call of some of the very best. Meals at Essence are prepared just for you, not for a production line, and combined with the best ingredients and truly dedicated staff, when you visit for lunch or dinner any day of the week you're not just visiting us for a meal - you're visiting for an experience.
