Pawa Cafe and Bar

Established by Aboriginal woman Niyoka Bundle from the Gundijtmara people of south west Victoria and the Yuin people of Bega, Pawa brings together native ingredients and familiar foods.

Pawa offers a seasonal offering of pastries, salads, sandwiches and more. Explore the tastes of native flavours with an ever-changing menu including lilly pilly croissants, strawberry gum brownies and kangaroo meat pies. Dine indoors or out, overlooking the Yarra and enjoy spectacular views of Melbourne, or simply enjoy takeaway.

Come evening, settle in with a cheese plate or grazing platter made with native flavours, alongside crafted cocktails made with Pawa’s very own Taka Gin. Or, pop in and raise a glass of wine from the all-Australian wine list with friends for a perfect pre-show.

With a focus on ethical and sustainable practices, Pawa works with a network of Indigenous native food growers, farmers and foragers as well as collaboration with local artisans and makers.
