Bear's Wine Bar

  • Bar
  • Restaurant

Bear's Wine Bar is a cozy and inviting spot nestled sightly off the beaten track in North Melbourne. This intimate 37-seat bar is housed in a charming 1860s terrace, blending vintage charm with modern sophistication.

With a food menu centred around share plates, seasonal dishes and trusty chicken salt fries, guests will be drawn into conversations over snacks – and more substantial plates – perfect for pairing with a curated selection of wines and creative cocktails. The owners’ warm hospitality and intimate atmosphere make Bear’s feel like home – a place to relax, connect, and savour delicious food and drinks.
