About Matty's Bar Bistro

Matty’s Bar Bistro is an unapologetically rough-around-the-edges Crib Point watering hole where genuine hospitality comes first. Run solo by its namesake publican, the vibe feels like an open house where you might get handed the Bluetooth speaker to DJ your own meal. Out back, the beer garden hides a stage, snooker table, and a playable drum kit right next to the fire pit. Regulars head straight for Tequila Sunrise slushies alongside hefty portions of cheesy garlic bread, garlic curry prawns, and roast pork.

  • Backyard Beer Garden: A relaxed backyard hangout equipped with a fire pit, karaoke stage, pool table, and an accessible drum kit.
  • Personal Hosting: Solo owner-operator hospitality where guests are welcomed warmly, accommodated off-hours, and given control of the tunes.
