Restaurants2

Zareh3◆

Destination · Armenian-Lebanese · Collingwood · $$$

booking essential

Tom Sarafian cooked at London's St. John and Moro and ran the kitchen at Bar Saracen, then turned his hummus into a cult jarred brand, before opening Zareh in August 2025, named for his Armenian grandfather, who cooked professionally after migrating from Egypt.

Jim's Greek Tavern

Destination · Greek taverna (BYO) · Collingwood · $$

book ahead

There is no menu to read. A waiter looks over your table, decides what you should be eating, and the food starts arriving.

Craft beer1

Molly Rose Brewery

Solid · Craft brewery · Collingwood · $$

book ahead

The first beer Nic Sandery sold, in 2017, was a smoked Japanese dark lager brewed with seaweed, and it is still in the range.

Cocktails1

Above Board

Destination · Intimate cocktail bar · Collingwood · $$$

walk-in

The spirits are not on display anywhere in this bar. They sit in unmarked decanters in drawers under the counter, and the drinks list is about twenty-five long because that is how much fits.

Wine1

The Moon

Solid · Natural wine bar · Collingwood · $$

book ahead

Patrick Sullivan makes a pinot noir in Gippsland called Gypsy Juice and sells it to this shop and to nobody else.

Coffee2

Proud Mary

Solid · Specialty coffee · Collingwood · $$

walk-in

The espresso machine is two three-group Synessos welded into one six-group, so every single origin on the bar has an extractor to itself and comes out tasting like nothing but itself.

Aunty Peg's

Solid · Specialty coffee · Collingwood · $$

walk-in

Three espresso handles were cut off a Synesso machine and set into the concrete benchtop beside three keg taps, so the room pours espresso and cold brew from the same bar.
