About The Butcher's Block

This lively Wahroonga staple delivers hearty, grill-focused plates in an airy room that bridges casual daytime dining with upscale evening celebrations. The kitchen turns out tender beef ribs glazed to a rich sheen alongside crisp duck fat potatoes and charred broccolini. Early risers count on the espresso bar firing up at dawn for hot bacon-and-egg rolls before road trips. Out back, a sun-dappled heated patio opens straight to rear parking, where tables fill fast over fluffy pancakes, prawn linguine, and generous glasses of cool-climate Shiraz.

  • Dawn Coffee Runs: The espresso counter kicks off service at 5:00 AM, pulling flat whites and frying bacon-and-egg rolls for early-morning commuters and transit stops.
  • Heated Garden Terrace: A heated rear terrace hosts weekend brunch and large gatherings, complete with direct access to ample public parking behind the building.
  • Grill-Centric Menu: The kitchen leans into robust mains, from glazed beef short ribs and prime steaks with peppercorn sauce to crispy duck fat potatoes.

  • Direct Rear Access and Free Parking

    Direct rear access lets guests walk straight in from ample free parking behind the street, simplifying arrivals for large travelling groups.

    Loads of free parking behind the street where the main entrance is (you can enter by the rear so don't need to walk around).

  • Heated Outdoor Terrace Dining

    An open-air back terrace fitted with overhead heaters allows diners to relax comfortably in the sun regardless of the chill in the air.

    Sitting out in the back terrace area with the sun coming through and the heaters on was just perfect on a Sunday morning.
