A white waiter stopped me right at the door step, with a stern and suspicious face. "What do you want?" I felt quite intimidated, as if I have wandered into a private property. "I just want to have something to eat." I subconsciously squeezed my hands. "Lunch is closed. Dinner only open at 6. We only have coffee and cakes." "I will have a coffee then." The "guard" pointed at the outside, "There are so many people there and they are all waiting for coffee. It will be ages." The message that "You are not welcome here", though unspoken, is loud and clear. I left, never to return.

It's rare to find a sophisticated bar outside of the CBD these days, and it's even rarer to find…read moreone that won't break your weekly drinking budget in one night. Hawker Beer and Wine Bar is located in the suburb of Highett just 30mins from Melbourne CBD. The bar is named after Harry Hawker, a local of the area. Harry George Hawker, was an Australian aviation pioneer. He was the chief test pilot for Sopwith and was also involved in the design of many of their aircraft. After World War One he co-founded Hawker Aircraft, the firm that would later be responsible for a long series of successful military aircraft. The bar itself is small and is directly across the road from the Highett train station, which seems to have some type of train passing through every 15mins. The fit-out is minimalistic, with large windows that give you a great view of the comings and goings in the area. What is great about this bar is the large cocktail list. With mostly original cocktails with a few traditional with a modern twist. The service is friendly and attentive, and I get the feeling if I lived in the area this would be my local. Apart from the great cocktails it has a good selection of beers and wines. It also had a pretty awesome snack menu, being provided by Typhoon, the Vietnamese restaurant next door. If you live in the area chances are you have either visited Hawker or know of it. If you haven't been do yourself a favour and pay them a visit, it won't disappoint.

It is a little salty but the charred-ness was just right and coupled with the almonds tasted so delicious! I just find the broccoli a little pricey at 15 bucks. Then the pulled pork burger came and the wagyu burger came. All was good and rather good standard just like Bright Winery restaurant standard. Then the Lamb ribs came... And it came with just 5 or 6 ribs stacked on each other. You can easily one-bite them and the flesh just comes off so easily you can barely describe it. Even the bones were tasty. And the fat between the bones and the first layer grilled part is so soft it almost seem translucent like saliva. Portion may seem small at first but trust me, these Lamb ribs are like wagyu beef in terms of fat content. You don't wanna be eating too many of this and driving up any mountain near Bright after this. (Motion sickness may occur; you've been warned!) Overall a fantastic meal and I still couldn't believe how good the Lamb ribs were; it's unbelieveable.

From the moment you walk in, there's a buzz that makes the place feel alive without being overwhelming. It strikes a great balance between upscale and relaxed, making it perfect for a date night or a fun evening out. The warm lighting and eclectic design add to the charm and make you want to linger. Service was friendly, attentive, and well-paced throughout the night. The staff were knowledgeable about the menu, checked in on us at the right moments, and made the whole experience feel effortless and welcoming. Every dish we ordered was excellent -- not a single miss. We started with the Cauliflower & Mozzarella Croquettes, which were crispy on the outside and perfectly creamy inside. The Grilled King Prawns were flavorful and cooked just right, while the Kingfish Ceviche was fresh, bright, and beautifully balanced. The Stracciatella & Heirloom Tomatoes was simple yet outstanding, letting the quality of the ingredients shine. For mains, the Duck Breast was cooked perfectly and full of rich flavor, and the Lamb Backstrap was tender and well-seasoned. The Pecorino & Ricotta Ravioli was comforting and delicate, while the Seafood Linguine stood out with generous portions of seafood and a beautifully balanced sauce. The Honey Glaze Carrots were the perfect side -- sweet, savory, and executed flawlessly. Overall, State of Grace delivers on every level -- ambience, service, and food. An exceptional spot that lives up to the hype, and one we'd absolutely return to on our next visit to Melbourne.

Even the ordering is eclectic as you order electronically (QR) pasted to a library book. This place is worth a visit.
