Motor

Hawthorn wine bar and bistro pairing woodfired share plates with a genuinely deep, well-chosen wine list.

A converted 1920s motor garage turned cosy, buzzing bistro-bar. stylish wood-panelled fit-out, a central bar for casual wine drinkers, a courtyard, and a private dining room for functions.

An extensive, well-curated wine list spanning small local producers to rare French, Italian and Spanish bottles, woodfired cooking, a revolving seasonal menu and a chef-curated 'Feed Me' share menu.

The heritage angle here is the building itself. reviewers repeatedly reference its history as one of Victoria's earliest motor garages, woven into the fit-out and storytelling.

Split sentiment. most reviewers find the pricing fair for the quality of food and wine, but a vocal minority flag small portions relative to price, particularly on seafood mains.
