In terms of drink, there is a strong focus on microbreweries and wineries producing interesting beverages. The homemade cocktails on offer also draw in the crowds, who stop in for A Casual Hello (42 Below Passion, Licor 43, apple juice, basil, lychees and peach bitters) or a Green Rose (Gin Mare, apple schnapps, rosemary, lime, topped with apple juice). There’s plenty of craft and mass-produced ciders and beer, and a wide-ranging wine list.

Summer chef Cassidy McMillan has put together a fresh vibrant summer menu - there are hints of native Australian produce in the gri­lled fish of the day; spiced pumpkin, shaved cucumber, pomegranate and feta salad and more. And with a vertiginous number of sides to choose from, you can chop and change your meal to your exact liking.

 

FUN FACT

You can order online from the Express Lunch menu (available Monday – Friday) and then just pop down to pick it up.
