Local ingredients kissed by fire and Middle-Eastern spice.
Owners Brenton and Bec Pyke channelled years of experience in Melbourne and Perth into their hometown return, with a restaurant and bar that brought a little bit of (bigger) city style to Bunbury. Nine years in, there’s a new al fresco area and a fresh look to the open kitchen, oriented around the custom-built wood-fired grill that’s at the heart of the expansive menu. It delivers tell-tale scorch to a line-up of Middle Eastern-style dishes.
Tender Abrolhos Islands Scallops with dill and apple, or cucumbers enlivened with sumac get a more delicate treatment while hummus topped with spiced lamb mince and crispy chickpeas, honey drenched cheese borek, or doughy za’atar flatbread bring favourites to the fore. The name gives it away, but local producers are celebrated here and the wine list leans into the surrounding Geographe region alongside plenty of bottles from Margaret River and the Great Southern. A strong cocktail list and craft beers, plus the ability to just duck in for a takeaway bite, round out the cosy comfort.
