Local owners Tom Hardwick and Michelle Morales have created a space that marries the charm of great European wine bars with the convivial atmosphere only found at a neighbourhood bar by the beach.

Head chef Sandro Di Marino has crafted a succinct Mediterranean menu built around classic coastal European flavours and top local produce.

The seasonal menu is perfectly complemented by a 500-bottle wine selection encompassing all major wine regions of the world with more than 50 different varietals on offer. And with 25 wines available by the glass, there’s always something new and interesting to try. We also offer a great selection of cocktails and beers.
