The food was awful, cooked at the bar in an air-fryer. The serving was slow, unorganised and below standard. On the positive side…. If you are looking for the most expensive meal cooked in a microwave and air-fryer, then this is the place to spend your $$$ and night. Shocking.

I really enjoyed my experience here,
the customer service and nibbles were great with the drinks, waiter was great at paring drinks with food! Would recommend

We had a lovely evening here. The food and drinks are delicious and the service was fantastic. They are able to cater for dietary requirements, particularly coeliac disease. Be sure to save room for dessert!

Enticed by the Poets and Prose sitting on Sunday just past. Hosts and owners Sig (& Tony) set a lovely themed, intimate and safe setting for those Poets readers and listeners, from experienced to the virgins (like me), be enthralled to test there untested pieces out to the patrons, who became, instant friends and "communi-fied" to the art of expressing the spoken word. The food beautifully prepared from the tiny kitchen was full of rich and mighty in flavours, and the selection of wines and beverages caters for all palettes. We will be back, to once again, be surprised.

Went on a night where it was not busy at all. Ordered one espresso martini, took them 30 minutes to start making it and cost $28. I would never expect to pay that amount for a cocktail where I am sitting indoors without a view or any sort of atmosphere.
Will not return

Service a little bit long but the 4 cocktails we had were delicious.
Did not try the food but the menu looked nice.

Staff? Friendly enough.
Quality of food and value for money?
Dismal.
We didn't order the "rosemary and thyme" proper crisps at $10.
Which were from a bag
A handful of chorizo bites & 4 prawns.
Cooked in the bar microwave and mini oven.that had to be check on by torchlight and took over 40 minutes to arrive.have certainly left a sour taste in the mouth. They might be a great wine bar but the cocktails and "meals" are subpar

I don’t generally leave reviews but this place ABSOLUTELY deserves taking a moment to do so! WOW! We came up from Darwin and found this little place which is stunning inside out along with the people that own it and run it. We ordered around 6 meals and shared them between the three of us and we could not stop talking about how amazing every bite was, it was Unbelievably good food and company! Thanks for having us guys, will ensure we are back soon!

Drinks were fine.
Food however was incredibly disappointing tiny servings and so overpriced.
Food came from a microwave and mini oven in the bar.
4 King prawns lacked any flavour and a hand full of not so (crispy) chorizo bites.
Leaving hungry and certainly won't be returning.

You must pay upon ordering due to recent (runners) I am not surprised.

Sensational vintage wine bar. It reminded me of those small French wine bars in Paris. Food was delicious and the wines were top quality, with a good range of selections. Service was friendly. I would definitely go back to this bar.
