Food Scene
The casual Greek eatery gives the traditional souvlaki a modern makeover, alongside Mediterranean-inspired dishes such as char-grilled octopus, and corn with oregano butter and shaved sheep-milk cheese. Every morning the kitchen fires up its coal grill using aromatic hardwood sourced from western Queensland, then places hunks of high quality lamb sourced from Junee in central New South Wales on the rotisserie to cook for five hours. Everything on the menu is available to takeaway, but those dining in can wash down their meals with beer from Mythos, Young Henrys, Cricketers Arms and Doss Blockos, or can opt for a wine instead.

I popped in for a quick drink before I met a friend on Wednesday night was met with the great surprise of a movie night. The crew open the doors and put on pizzas and a movie for free from 5pm every Wednesday. This week they were showing the Pussy Riot film and I grabbed a seat the bar, sank a drink and enjoyed the movie until it was time for me to head off to meet my mate.
Every time I've been to Crow bar the staff and the clientele have been freaking' awesome. Helpful, relaxed and inviting, they break every stereotype that a metal venue would unfortunately have. If you head to Crow Bar, be ready for your expectations to be blown out of the water.
