RESERVATIONS

Locavore NXT takes our local ingredients philosophy further than we have ever gone before. It is a space we have built for creating, experimenting, collaborating, working closely with nature and – we hope – bringing the world of food one step closer to where it should be.

It’s a bit more than a restaurant. It’s a localised rebellion.

You can make a reservation at Locavore NXT for the full dining experience or check our website to find out more ways you can visit NXT, including upcoming events and programs.

Thursday - Saturday
Seatings from 12pm to 1:30pm

Monday - Saturday
Seatings from 5:30pm to 8:30pm

VIEW THE MENU

Our vision is to present a rich, deeply passionate showcase of traditional Indonesian cuisine in a contemporary experience that reflects the developing and creative nature of Indonesian culture.

Nusantara means archipelago in bahasa Indonesia and with an estimated over 17,000 islands, 1,300 tribes, 300 local languages, 3,000 cuisines, its diversity is what makes the country.

Our Nusantara is an ethno-culinary portrait of the country. Yet we represent more than just the food itself – also the local ingredients, cooking techniques, serving style and rituals that all make up the heritage and culinary culture.

Our menus cover certain regions of Indonesia, where some of the strongest recipes and culinary inspirations originate. Many of our dishes are lesser-known, very local, and often not commonly found outside of those regions. Key to this is our ongoing research in discovering lost recipes, techniques, and dishes that have been forgotten or no longer practiced. Our team is bringing these back to life.

As the sister restaurant to Locavore NXT, Nusantara benefits from the same supply chains of very high-quality ingredients, organic and heritage produce, support for local farmers, and of course, only Indonesian ingredients.

Above our restaurant is a private dining space that was once Locavore’s food laboratory and test kitchen. This space is now available to book for dinner for parties of 8-12 people, where you can enjoy the Nusantara set menu as an intimate dining experience in a room rich with culinary history.

Every Wednesday to Sunday our chef Putu teaches the craft of authentic Indonesian dishes. The itinerary and menu can be customised to provide a personal experience, whether it's for yourself or as a special gift for someone else.

Peggy's Brass Knuckles is currently taking a break due to relocation.
Stay tuned on our Instagram to find out when we're coming back.

Peggy’s Brass Knuckles is our restaurant done proper.

Real chefs, real produce, and really sharp knives. Peggy’s is our idea of a proper restaurant, where we make dishes that we love cooking and want to eat ourselves, with decent drinks too.

Peggy’s is also more than just a proper restaurant. We have an onsite butcher’s shop and bakery, with a retail space that sells some of the ingredients we make ourselves. Plus a cafe that makes a good cup of coffee and a bar with our favourite locally brewed craft beers on tap.

As with all restaurants by Locavore, all our ingredients are only sourced locally except for our extended beverage list, which features a curated mix of imported wines and spirits. It’s important for us to stick to only using food that can be found around us, even if that means going the extra mile in the kitchen. Better in here than out there.

LabX is our creative playground at Locavore NXT. It's our dedicated food laboratory and testing kitchen for culinary research and development... the space for all our new culinary innovations to begin. 

Our R&D team is constantly experimenting with local ingredients to discover new tastes, techniques and, ultimately, recipes that will feature on the tasting menu and beverage menu at NXT. Some of the breakthroughs in LabX might also make it into our range of food products sold in the Design Store.

Staying true to Locavore philosophy, Club Soda served innovative cocktails, non-alcoholic concoctions and a food menu inspired by East Asian small plates, all of which celebrate the sole use of local Indonesian ingredients.

Meanwhile Club Soda's sibling brand, DUB Soda, brought the good time to its fullest with our artisan Hi-Fi sound system. This ‘jazz-kissa’ style corner of pure musical appreciation housed collaborations with some of our favourite creatives from around the world.

MAKE AN ORDER

When Locavore chefs Eelke and Ray want a break from the culinary high-craft of their tasting menu, they sit down and enjoy a damn-fine sandwich, burger, or coffee from their ‘cafe’ Locavore To Go.

The cafe is a casual off-shoot of their ideas and passions. Using many of their own produce from their adjacent butcher shop, Local Parts, the menu highlights span from the famous Burger à la Ray to classic sandwiches, charcuterie platters, and daily changing comfort food.

Ever wanted to pick an item to be cooked from the butcher shop but not have to cook it yourself? Just point at the butcher showcase chiller, take a seat, and we will cook it for you.

Coffee and drinks are also up to scratch with beans from local roastery Hungry Bird and teas from Chontea.

WHATSAPP ORDER

When chefs demand to go meet the farms, make relationships, and ensure the product is ethical and very high quality, you result in a great network of farmers and craft food suppliers. Whilst the team supports a balanced approach to eating meat, they do want the best from the meats that they use. It made total sense to help others have that opportunity too, so they opened their own Butcher Shop using only ethical, locally raised, and high-quality meats.

Local Parts is also a specialist in charcuterie and has perfected its own interpretation of classics using local meats – along with a large range of pickles, sauces, rubs, and other packaged goods for you to boost your own home cooking experiences.

Here you'll also find the ‘best of’ local partners such as Braud sourdough, 8 Degrees Cheese, and local salts.

Some things wander. Not far, just enough to end up where they don’t quite belong. Look closely, and you might find some of our team’s ‘essential items’ turning up in the most unlikely places within the NXT space.

BIO Library

Some libraries are filled with books, ours is packed with ingredients—wild herbs, exotic fruits and protein sources—spectacularly documented by our custom ‘photogrammetry’ studio to create ‘Research You Can Touch’.

The techie bit; software stitches together up to 120 photos of each ingredient from different angles and transforms them into a 3D model. The ‘Wow, that’s so cool’ bit; scroll-zoom-pinchable models that float in front of your eyes.

Experience it for yourself in the Biodiversity Interactive Open-Source, a.k.a. B.I.O. Library, found deep in the basement of Locavore NXT. Or

How Our Ideas Become Edible

HOIBE - Opening

Taste Of The Unknown

Some flavours are loud, others hide in the layers of potential within the unknown; the overlooked, the unusual, the discarded, the what-ifs. They demand a healthy dose of experimentation mixed with the energy of creativity and innovation to unlock their secrets.

Our LabX team starts each day by embracing the ‘unknown’ and walking the path of discovery (ahem... sometimes leading to dead ends and wrong turns), eventually emerging with some wonderful breakthroughs and results.

And then, on a regular basis, we choose one of these projects and turn it into a jar that you can have at home to sprinkle, stir or explore the magic it can do to food for yourself.

Step into the unknown with the wonderfully creative world of LabX products.

Shared Habitat

Look Closer

From the moment you step in, we invite you to slow down and notice what’s quietly thriving around you; the biodiversity, the hum of life in the background and, if you’re really paying attention, the art. Layered and alive, they are more than just ornaments.


‘Shared Habitat’, a mixed-media visual artwork connected to a real-time website, showcases curated glimpses of environments through the eyes of artists, activists, designers and everyday observers. Inspired by the humble quadrat tool used by botanists to study ecosystems, it reframes habitats as not just physical spaces, but living expressions of culture, nature, food and local issues.

Outside, you’ll spot ‘Quadrat’ (again), this time in a loud, oversized sculpture form of 12:1 scale–making that metaphor tangible and challenging us to ask how well we truly know our surroundings. Inside, ‘Floral Study’, a series of botanical illustrations by our lovely friends at Black Hand Gang, captures flowers found around the NXT building in vibrant detail.


In a world that moves fast, these works invite us to pause, see and feel closer. They are part of the ‘Habitat’ artwork series by Agency X.

Circular Waste Centre

One of the ways we set out to create 'More Than A Restaurant' was integrating the space back into nature. We wanted nature to reclaim the space and run a bit wild.

One year later, it turns out we've made a lovely home for many of our new furry, scaley, feathery and eight-eyed friends.

Filling our mornings with a friendly ‘meow’ is Jerry, the three-legged cat who has moved into our reception 'Shed', colourful lizards dance around the high ceilings, a night-time chorus of frogs fills the air, chickens patrol the parking lot and countless birds have nested in and around the building and landscape. They’re not just passing through as they’ve made our space home. A little wilder, a little livelier.

Wild Neighbours

Every creative spirit is shaped by their surroundings—often an unseen ecosystem of ideas and emotions that fuels our passions. Everyone's habitat is unique, making up our wonderfully diverse world of stories and perspectives.

Here, we gather artists, filmmakers, activists and storytellers to share how their unique environments inspire their work. Flip through the interconnected stories of our SHARED HABITAT.

Let’s talk numbers – not the kind that sit quietly in reports, but those that feel alive…

Numbers that grow roots through the rooftop soil, flow through the water filter systems and buzz through the flowers and trees. Numbers that you taste in the innovations, creativity and hard effort to turn wastefulness into a resourceful, regenerative and living project.

These numbers tell the story of a system that works with nature, not against it.

Isn’t it funny how the natural world seems to work together in a cosmic symbiotic-buddy-up style? We think it's about time we did too.

Isn’t it funny how the natural world seems to work together in a cosmic symbiotic-buddy-up style?

Humanity, however, has veered off this path and gone alone down a trajectory of single-use habits, fly-things around the planet, nature’s ‘not-my-problem’ kind of way.

The incredible natural world we share instinctively knows what to do in harmony with its habitat and environment. We think it’s about time we tuned into that too.

NXT follows this direction provided by nature, and it becomes our compass and guide. We aim to disrupt the imbalance of modern lifestyles and follow the lead shown by the natural world to make better choices for a happier future.

We hope sharing our antics helps inspire you that ‘doing good’ isn’t a constraint, it’s an opportunity.
Let’s un-fuck the future together.
