About Albert's Wine Bar

Word around the neighbourhood points straight to Albert’s side-street veranda—prime territory for aperitivo, sinking dirty negronis alongside dishes of green olives. Inside, tables sit elbow-to-elbow in a low-lit room that hums well into the evening. The kitchen backs up the bottles with serious cooking: crunchy prawn and crab toast laced with miso, freshly shucked oysters, and casarecce tossed in vodka sauce with smoked ricotta. Behind the timber bar, staff steer guests through cellar bottles and pours of Morris Whisky.

  • Elevated Share Plates: Kitchen staples include casarecce in vodka sauce with smoked ricotta, sesame prawn and crab toast, and 500g dry-aged rib eye.
  • Guided Tastings & Cellar Pours: Staff guide patrons through an expansive wine list and regional Morris Whisky tastings directly across the bar.
  • Side-Street Setting: A lively covered veranda outside gives way to an intimate, low-lit dining room tucked off the thoroughfare.
