About Sonny's Bar

Mount Hawthorn locals drop by Sonny's Bar for serious wood-fired cooking and sharp wine pours in an amber-lit room. The kitchen sets an immediate pace with house bread finished over open coals, alongside oysters brightened with finger lime and tender crudos dressed in mandarin vinegar. Mains keep the table quiet—think flame-grilled pork collar under a rich koji butter sauce or crisp-skinned duck. Floor staff guide tables through glasses of Picpoul with casual precision, adjusting tasting plates on the fly for coeliac and vegan diners without missing a beat. The night winds down easily over rich chocolate mousse and a nightcap.

  • Sommelier-Guided Pairings: In-house sommeliers pour tastes by the glass tableside to tailor pairings to every course.
  • Wood-Fire & Seasonal Plates: The kitchen finishes house bread over open flame and balances flame-grilled pork with koji butter and finger lime crudos.
  • Confident Dietary Care: Set and tasting menus adapt seamlessly for coeliac, keto, and vegan requirements without compromise.

The Sonny's Bar Advantage

Why diners choose Sonny's Bar for elevated evenings and seamless shared dining

  • Creative open-fire cooking and dynamic tasting menus

    The kitchen prepares thoughtful chef-driven tasting and set menus featuring dishes like oven-charred bread, pork collar with koji butter, and delicate crudos.

    It was the perfect pairing to a beautifully flame grilled pork chop. The caramelised bark around the bone, full of flavour and the koji butter sauce a revelation.

  • Seamless dietary accommodations without compromise

    The kitchen and front-of-house readily tailor multi-course meals to coeliac, keto, or vegan requirements without diminishing the culinary experience.

    We came through with insufferable “keto diet” eating restrictions and the staff made us feel totally welcome after ordering the chefs selection for 2. The chef made some alterations and everything was amazing.
