As evening settles in, a new glow begins to rise. Created by the team behind Wildseed Café, Lantern was born from a desire to bring a fresh and soulful dining experience to the night – where warm hospitality meets the bold, vibrant flavours of Pan-Asian cuisine. 

At Lantern, food is a journey. Our menu draws inspiration from across the Asian continent, from the fragrant street food of Bangkok to the refined simplicity of Tokyo, the fiery kitchens of Sichuan to the rich traditions of Malaysia and Vietnam. Every dish is prepared with care, using fresh ingredients, authentic techniques and a touch of creative flair. 

To match the menu, our drinks offering brings the same spirit of discovery to the glass. From house-crafted cocktails that balance spice, citrus and herb, to a thoughtfully chosen list of Australian wines, each pour is designed to complement the food and elevate the moment.

More than just a place to eat, Lantern is designed to be a space where you can slow down, savour and connect. Whether it’s a spontaneous meal midweek, a celebration with friends, or a quiet evening shared between two, Lantern brings a relaxed and refined sense of occasion to every evening. 

We’re proud to grow with the community we love, shaping the Delacombe space into something new, welcoming and memorable. So when the lights dim and the evening begins, let Lantern guide you on a culinary journey worth returning to – time and time again.

Come and experience the glow.
