Hopper Joint

Hopper Joint, founded by Jason Jones and Brahman Perera, is a vibrant tribute to Sri Lankan street food in the heart of Prahran, Melbourne.

Inspired by Bremi’s heritage and passion for design, the space is a reflection of tropical modernism, with every detail telling a story of Sri Lanka—from the antique chandeliers to the bespoke rattan chairs.

At the helm of the kitchen is Head Chef Ronith Victor Arlikatti, bringing family recipes passed down through generations to life.

The menu is centered around the beloved Sri Lankan “Hopper Set,” a hands-on feast where guests enjoy unlimited hoppers—delicate, bowl-shaped pancakes made from fermented rice and coconut milk. Each Hopper Set comes with an egg hopper, unlimited plain hoppers, and a selection of traditional condiments like pol sambol (fresh coconut with lime and chili) and seeni sambol (sweet caramelized onions). Diners also choose two curries from a variety of bold, authentic options such as black pork curry, okra curry, and Sushila’s chicken curry.

So head on down to Hopper Joint, where it’s a hopper party every night on Greville Street.
