know about us
Four Court is a covered trading yard in South Melbourne, given over to food, coffee and the people who make it.
56 Boundary Street
Four Court brings independent food kitchens together around a central covered seating area, with direct access from Boundary Street, designed for easy stop-in meals.
The kitchen line-up is curated to offer a varied mix of food styles through independent operators which can evolve overtime.
The covered setting makes Four Court more than a fair-weather food destination. With space to sit, food to take away, and local parking available in the immediate area, it offers an easy place to meet, eat and return to throughout the week.
So settle in under cover, or grab something to go.
Four Court is operated by Lennox Holdings Pty Ltd.

A boundary worth the name
Boundary Street runs about a kilometre north-west to south-east, and it has always been a line on a map. It divided the old Borough of Port Melbourne from the Montague end of South Melbourne back when that difference mattered, and it still separates two very different kinds of city.
On the north-east side is Montague, one of five precincts in the Fishermans Bend Urban Renewal Area — 480 hectares, the largest project of its kind in Australia, planned to hold around 80,000 residents and up to 80,000 jobs by 2050.
Warehouses and panel shops are giving way to apartment buildings and offices, and the precinct has thousands more dwellings still to come.
On the south-west side is Port Melbourne — low-rise, established, largely residential, running down through Ross Street and Nott Street to the Bay Street shops.
Four Court sits on the seam. That’s the whole point of the site: a workday trade from one side, an evening and weekend trade from the other, and a canopy over the top so neither depends on the forecast.
