The Recreation bistro x bottleshop Fitzroy North bistronomy and bottleshop. Charcoal grill, warm hospitality
(235)

The Recreation bistro x bottleshop opened in late 2016 serving clean, fresh and delicious dishes that draw upon the charcoal burning grill that has been especially built for the venture. The drinks selection is available drink in or take away with a range of wines, beers and spirits from around the globe on offer.

'The Rec' is able to accommodate those in need of a quick coffee, refreshing drink or meal. We also allow BYO wine with a corkage charge for those looking to bring a special bottle.
