Big Esso is an all-day bar and kitchen located on the land of the Wurundjeri and Boonwurrung peoples. We are beyond proud to be bringing Indigenous food and culture back to the banks of Birrarung (Yarra). This River was once an eel breeding ground; where shark, dolphin and stingrays could be found. ​ This place was a main source of food, hunting, cooking, and ceremony. By sharing food in this place, we hope to bring these stories back to life. ​ 'Big Esso' is an expression in the Torres Strait. It’s a slang term that means ‘the biggest thank you.’ This is what you say when you really want to express your gratitude. When combined, ‘Mabu Mabu & Big Esso’ is what you would say before kicking-off a celebration like no other. ​

    This was a business lunch; none of us had visited Freyja before and we were all equally impressed! The menu is seemingly simple, but the food packs a punch, we thoroughly enjoyed it. The steak was particularly good. Staff were all lovely. One diner at our table had specific dietary requirements and these were met without fuss. The fit out here is just beautiful, and the acoustics are exceptional, making business chatter very simple. We will definitely return to Freyja.
