Mulberry Lane Cafe in Melbourne will host a special Father's Day pop-up dinner on Saturday, June 19, featuring a multi-course menu prepared by owner Kelly Scianna. The event starts at 6:30 p.m. and requires reservations. Scianna, known for his work at the north Melbourne eatery, designed the menu to include dishes like dry-aged, honey-glazed pork belly with pistachio dust, bouillabaisse with branzino and PEI mussels, and bone-in porterhouse pork chop with pommes puree. The cafe will also offer chocolate croissant bread pudding or beignets for dessert. Scianna has also been active in the community, hosting a bake sale last week to support Junk Food Bakery after a recent fire. The cafe is located at 3440 N. Harbor City Blvd., Melbourne. Reservations can be made by calling 321-426-7149 or visiting the restaurant’s Facebook page. Other local restaurants with Father’s Day specials include Broken Barrel Tavern in Palm Bay, which will serve dry-rubbed ribs at $19.99 and $29.99 all day. The tavern is located at 4700 Babcock St. NE and can be contacted at 321-728-4755. Bunky’s Brewery in Melbourne (Suntree) will offer a free craft beer with any entrée purchase on Sunday, June 20, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The brewery is at 6300 N. Wickham Road and can be reached at 321-252-6100. Scianna’s pop-up dinner will run concurrently with typical Father’s Day offerings in Brevard, which are often more informal than Mother’s Day meals. The event highlights a growing trend among local chefs to provide elevated dining experiences for fathers. Scianna’s menu includes both classic and inventive dishes, reflecting his approach to cooking. The pop-up dinner will be the first of its kind at Mulberry Lane, which typically focuses on breakfast and lunch. The cafe’s Facebook page and phone number are listed for those interested in attending. Local diners have praised Scianna’s ability to balance comfort food with culinary creativity, a trait evident in the Father’s Day menu. The event is part of a broader effort by Brevard restaurants to cater to fathers with more refined options. Scianna’s bake sale last week to support Junk Food Bakery underscores his commitment to the community. The pop-up dinner will conclude on Sunday, June 20, with regular operations resuming at Mulberry Lane.
