About The Hayberry Diner & Bar

A divey Crows Nest refuge slinging greasy-spoon Americana to a soundtrack of blues and 90s alternative rock. Slide into a dark leather booth for a dripping Cheesus burger and crisp waffle fries dunked in hickory sauce, or take a schooner of craft beer into the dog-friendly covered beer garden out back. Gluten-free diners are looked after with their own dedicated fryer, while the bar team mixes lychee cocktails and shakes up house shots without an ounce of pretense.

  • Rock-and-Roll Dive Vibe: Leather booths, dark rustic finishes, and a steady soundtrack of blues, rock, and alternative cuts keep the room casual and lively.
  • Dog-Friendly Courtyard: A spacious, covered rear beer garden welcomes pets and easily accommodates groups under festoon lighting.
  • Dedicated Gluten-Free Fryer: Chips and fried sides are run through a dedicated fryer alongside gluten-free burger options.

  • Indulgent American Comfort Food

    Serves hearty, unapologetic American comfort food ranging from rich, messy cheeseburgers to crispy waffle fries and wings paired with cold drinks.

    It’s messy, indulgent, and exactly what you want with a cold drink. Simple, cheesy, and seriously satisfying.

  • Southern Fried Chicken Burger

    I had the Southern Fried chicken burger. It was amazing, the portion was more than I expected (meaning good).

  • Buffalo Wings

    Tried the burgers, buffalo wings and tacos. My son devoured his burger.

  • Cheesus Burger

    The Cheesus Burger is pure comfort food done right. A juicy beef patty smothered in rich, melted cheese, balanced with pickles and onion, all packed into a soft bun that holds together till the last bite. It’s messy, indulgent, and exactly what you want with a cold drink.
