The former Hawthorn Motor Garage was built in 1912. What wasessentially once a long, narrow, brick shed has been transformed into awood-fired, wine-fuelled bistro. This is Motor, a neighbourhood wine bar/bistrothat can suit any occasion. Whether you are in an intimate booth, private diningroom or perched at the bar, we have the ability to suit any occasion. We use thetimeless wisdom of wood fire cooking to celebrate local and seasonal ingredientsthat pair well with wine – a diverse list where our focus is not so much abouta certain ethos as such, we prefer lasting style to take precedence.

• Italian • South Yarra
Booked 17 times today
Caffé e Cucina opened on August 16th 1988, with the aim of recreating the great restaurants in the most famous cities all over Italy. Since then, it has consistently achieved high acclaim in its contribution to the definition of "cafe culture" in Australia, originally introducing the concept of Italian hospitality in Melbourne.Small tables, dim lights and high-end service are only some of our secret. "Produzione Artigianale” means strong attention to detail and passion for our culture.A wide selection of wines, freshly baked bread on arrival and top quality extra virgin olive oil will never be missing.The warm welcoming atmosphere, the thick accents and the genuine flavours are perfectly blended, casting a spell that transports you straight to Italy.We have always been driven by the clear and ambitious intention to provide great traditional food, attentive yet friendly service and all around consistency.
