This month we are happy to announce our newest addition, Bar Conte, to our Surry Hills Tour. The World’s first dedicated Negroni Bar and Italian Restaurant in Sydney. The menu features Italian dishes ranging from light Aperitivo snacks to hearty pastas. We have raided the bookshelf again! This time to embark on a global culinary journey, with essential reads that delve into the recipes, anecdotes and the dining hot spots on Planet Earth. As always, stay tuned for more updates and discoveries from Sydney's ever-evolving food scene.

The World’s first dedicated Negroni Bar and Italian Restaurant in Sydney, offering a unique selection of over 30 Negronis made with premium products. In addition, the bar boasts an extensive list of rare Italian Vermouth, Bitters, and Amari.

The kitchen is overseen by chef and co-owner Steven De Vecchi, formerly of The Apollo. The menu features Italian dishes ranging from light Aperitivo snacks to hearty pastas.

The 1920’s Tuscan wine bar concept has a touch of American speakeasy charm, apparent in the comfortable and stylish leather banquettes of the 38-seater space. The handsome green Italian-marble bar takes centre stage surrounded by stucco red walls adorned with vintage Italian film and beverage posters. The intimate space is designed to create a homely atmosphere for guests, where drinks and food are prepared from the heart.

The best part is if you have a big night on the Negroni’s, you can return the next morning for an espresso and a fresh pastry to ease you into the day. Now that’s a true Italian lifestyle moment.
