Achelya Café Restaurant & Bar is stepping into a new era.
For more than two decades, this venue has been a cornerstone of the Docklands dining scene, known and loved as a Turkish restaurant that brought warmth, flavour, and community to NewQuay Promenade. Now, a new chapter begins.
Butcher’s Prime has taken over the space, carefully reimagining it while respecting its legacy—transforming it into a vibrant, all-day dining destination designed for the rhythm of modern Docklands life.
From 7am, the doors open to the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and a café-style breakfast that invites early risers, waterfront walkers, and busy professionals to start their day right. As the morning unfolds into brunch, the energy builds—plates become more indulgent, conversations linger longer, and the space comes alive with a relaxed, social atmosphere.
By evening, Achelya evolves once again.
he venue transitions into a modern Australian dining experience, where bold flavours, premium ingredients, and thoughtful presentation take centre stage. Whether it’s an intimate dinner, a casual catch-up, or a lively group gathering, the space adapts effortlessly.
With a capacity of 130 guests, Achelya is designed to host moments—big and small. The outdoor garden offers a refreshing escape, bringing a touch of greenery and openness to the waterfront setting, perfect for long lunches, sunset drinks, and weekend vibes.
And as the sun dips, the mood shifts.
Happy hour sets the tone, glasses clink, and the venue begins to pulse with energy. Themed nights bring something new to the table—creating reasons to return, again and again. Each visit promises a different experience, yet always with the same welcoming spirit.
Achelya Café Restaurant & Bar is more than a revamp—it’s a reinvention.
A place where past meets present, where mornings are calm, afternoons are vibrant, and nights are full of character.
A new story for Docklands has begun—one that invites you to be part of it.
