About Natural Science Wine and Liquor

Natural Science Wine and Liquor pairs an all-Australian bottle shop with a relaxed neighbourhood bar in Melbourne's east. Shelves hold strictly independent local bottles—from lo-fi wines and craft beers to boutique spirits and non-alcoholic pours. Regulars drop in for unpretentious bottle recommendations or pull up a seat outside under the lamps to sip a rotating tap pour while neighbouring pizza arrives hot at the table.

  • All-Australian Independent Catalog: Every bottle on the shelves is independent and Australian-made, covering lo-fi drops, craft brews, and small-batch spirits.
  • Bar Pours & Neighbouring Pizza: Sit down for pours by the glass and order hot pizza from neighbouring Lorena delivered straight to your table.
