Wine Bar

Great for fine wines
Neighbourhood gem
Good for business meals

Nestled next to Australia’s leading independent wine store, the Prince Wine Store, Bellota makes full use of the massive selection on offer from its sister business. The restaurant/wine bar brings to fruition a long-held desire to provide a venue that showcases the great wines of the world in a warm and friendly environment alongside beautifully executed food. Head chef Nicky Riemer champions the kitchen with her European cuisine which offers a sense of provenance and brings back flavours that often get lost in modern cooking techniques.

The casual, friendly atmosphere is at the heart of Bellota. Our knowledgeable staff’s aim is simple; try and help you love the wine as much as they do. Our list changes with the seasons and wines are all available by the taste, glass and carafe (half bottle), reflecting our belief that good and interesting wines are made all over the globe. We also offer a small selection of iconic wines, poured by the taste utilising the Coravin wine access system.

Our table of 4 were once again privileged to experience a fabulous evening at Bellota Wine Bar. Stand out dishes were cuttlefish with chickpeas, pork ragu and one very big and delicious pork cutlet. Thank you Bellota staff for making our night 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
