About Bar Woolloomooloo

Inside the Ovolo Hotel warehouse on Cowper Wharf, this dimly lit retreat turns plant-based dining into a rich, full-flavored night out. Stripped of preachiness, the kitchen crafts Mediterranean-leaning plates that easily satisfy committed carnivores—think warm focaccia dragged through savory mushroom sauce, hearty plant-based meatballs, and golden fried eggplant topped with agrodolce and hazelnuts. Guests wander the surrounding wharf sculpture walk with a yuzu whiskey fizz, then settle by the heritage industrial conveyors for an unhurried round of pool.

  • All-Plant Comfort Food: Hearty plant-based meatballs, cacio e pepe, and agrodolce eggplant made to win over omnivores and vegans alike.
  • Repurposed Wharf Heritage: Housed in a repurposed wharf warehouse with historic industrial conveyors, pool tables, and an adjacent sculpture walk.
  • Craft Sips & High Tea: Plates pair with thoughtful craft cocktails like the yuzu whiskey fizz and a dedicated vegan high tea service.

  • Heritage Wharf Architecture and Art

    Housed inside the historic Woolloomooloo wharf, the dining lounge preserves original industrial warehouse features and showcases an integrated sculpture walk.

    The hotel is awesome being a repurposed warehouse. It's great that they have kept the original conveyors in as a feature.
