As the cooler months begin to settle in, Commune Group is thrilled to announce the return of its highly popular ‘Dine & Cash’ promotion.

Commune, one of Melbourne's favourite hospitality groups, is celebrated for its innovative restaurants that offer a modern twist on classic cuisines and its Dine & Cash promotion will give guests the chance to have their dining dollars go further for the entire month of June. Available for dine-in guests from Monday to Thursday, the promotion runs from Saturday, June 1 to Sunday, June 30, and is available at the following locations:

Elegant Neo-Vietnamese, New Quarter, Richmond

Modern Japanese, Tokyo Tina, Windsor

The Commune OG, Hanoi Hannah Express Lane, Windsor

With multiple venues across Melbourne, Commune Group sees the promotion as an opportunity for the team to thank all of its customers, both loyal and new, who have shown ongoing support for their venues. Simon Blacher, Creative Director of Commune Group shares, 

“Our guests are the heart and soul of Commune, and we are thrilled to bring back the ‘Dine & Cash’ promotion as a token of our appreciation. This initiative not only allows us to give back to the city we love but also encourages food enthusiasts to explore or re-discover the experiences our venues have to offer.

Winter can be a pretty miserable time in Melbourne, this is our way of sharing a little bit of food & fun sunshine with everyone.”

To redeem the voucher, diners simply need to scan a QR code that is provided in venue or snap a photo of their bill and submit the receipt on Commune Group’s dedicated online portal; a gift voucher will then be issued within 1-7 working days. 


Commune Group’s ‘Dine & Cash’ promotional period runs from 1 June - 30 June 2024 and is valid for in-venue dining only between Mondays - Thursdays.

All diners must keep physical receipts to upload and claim, and receipts must be submitted before 30 June. ​ No minimum spend required. ​ Digital vouchers will be provided digitally within 1-7 working days; for any issues after 7 working days please email redeem@communegroup.com.au The ‘Dine & Cash’ promotion does not apply for Private Dining bookings. The ‘Dine & Cash’ vouchers are redeemable at all Commune Group Venues.
