For upscale Mediterranean dining, Bibo Wine Bar is the sleek venue for you.

Vino enthusiasts listen up because Bibo’s is a multi-awardee of Australia’s Wine List of the Year Awards. Pick a Wellington & Wolfe Reisling, a Gala Pinot Noir, or ask for recommendations from Bibo’s sommeliers.

Bibo’s tasting menu is $80 per person, or you can purchase individual dishes from an a la carte menu. If you opt for a la carte, the Piri Piri Eggplant with Stracciatella and matchstick potato for $28 is a top pick

While Indigo is open all day, it specialises in breakfast and light lunch dishes.
