We probably should’ve seen this coming…
Our new Spice Bag has officially landed on the menu, loaded with crispy chips, fried chicken, peppers, onions and our house seasoning; and judging by the empty plates, you’ve decided it’s a winner.
We can’t promise it’ll become your new favourite.
But we’re also not making any promises that it won’t.

This and a one-way ticket please...
But if a Euro Sumer isn't in the budget this year, we'll happily pretend Port Melbourne is the Amalfi Coast and bring an Aperol Spritz straight to your table.
And if you ask nicely, we might get one of our locals to sing with a guitar for you 🍹

For the record, we still love a parma.
But this Warm Root Salad has been converting even the most committed salad sceptics. Roasted seasonal vegetables, all the cosy winter vibes, and the kind of dish that makes you question everything Homer ever taught us.
Come try the menu item everyone's been talking about!
See you at the pub 🥗🍻
