About Where's Nick Wine Bar

Marrickville locals head here for serious low-intervention pours without the wine-snob attitude. Bottles lean natural and funky, backed by by-the-glass pours you can sample before committing. Staff navigate the cellar without fuss, steering you toward skin-contact whites or chilled reds that fit the mood. In the kitchen, rotating chef takeovers deliver late-night share plates—crispy potatoes slicked with fermented chilli butter, warm focaccia, and seasonal pastas long after other burners on the strip go dark.

  • Sample-Ready Pours: Dozens of funky and skin-contact drops poured by the glass, with try-before-you-buy guidance from attentive staff.
  • Late Kitchen Takeovers: Chef collaborations and rotating plates rolling out late into the evening after neighboring kitchens close.
  • Pup-Friendly Perch: Relaxed outdoor and indoor tables where dogs are welcome to lounge alongside diners.

  • Late-night dining with thoughtful seasonal plates

    Unlike spots that limit late offerings to pre-packaged snacks, the kitchen serves creative, seasonal dishes long after standard restaurant kitchens finish service.
