About Beast&Co

Central European comfort gets a sharp French twist at this low-lit Surry Hills dining room. Run by a husband-and-wife team, dinner moves quickly from crisp pork croquettes and rich bone marrow to dry-aged duck or flank steak dripping in Café de Paris butter. Regulars pair the hearty plates with Czech Pilsner on tap, before wrapping up over warm plum-jam doughnuts and glasses of Becherovka.

  • Central European Flavours: Czech-inspired mains, rich bone marrow, and airy doughnuts with spiced plum jam meet cold Pilsner Urquell on tap and herbal Becherovka.
  • Hands-On Hosting: Co-owner Petra orchestrates a warm, attentive floor while her partner helms the kitchen.

  • Authentic Regional Spirits & Specialties

    Specialty European offerings extend beyond traditional bistros with authentic Czech spirits like Becherovka and regional favorites.

    I also tried Becherovka liqueur for the first time as a digestif, and I highly recommend it.

  • Heartfelt Personal Touches

    The husband-and-wife owner partnership creates a welcoming and personalized environment across the floor and kitchen.

    The service was attentive and the passion they have for their restaurant shows in every interaction. It’s rare to find a place where both the food and the guest experience are this thoughtfully executed. The personal touch from the owners makes all the difference.

  • Dry-Aged Duck

    Their Dry-aged Duck (pan-fried breast, confit leg, red cabbage, jus) and Flank Steak (cafe de paris butter, confit garlic, red wine jus) were indulgent.

  • Bone Marrow

    The bone marrow was indulgent in the best possible way – rich and buttery with parmesan, parsley and grilled bread to soak everything up.
