Theodore’s
Refreshment
Service
is
a
Brunswick
wine
bar
tucked
away
in
a
street
just
behind
Sydney
Rd.
It
was
named
after
the
owners
son
Teddy
and
in
a
previous
life
was
an
old
fishmongers.
You
would
never
know
it
though,
the
warehouse
venue
is
architecturally
stunning,
featuring
an
atrium
style
courtyard
out
the
front,
leading
to
a
bottle
shop
and
dining
space
with
bar
and
booth
seating.
Since
opening
in
2019
and
surviving
through
the
past
few
tough
years,
in
2022
they
have
pivoted
to
hosting
kitchen
takeovers!
On
my
visit
was
@fiend_melb
headed
by
Chef
@latestdisgrace13
with
experience
working
in
at
highly
regarded
restaurants
like
@cutlerandco,
@anchovy338
and
@rockpoolbarandgrill.

The
menu
was
short
but
sweet,
with
every
option
leaving
us
intrigued.
The
Artichoke
Hearts
were
a
great
starter,
very
crisp.
The
Fennel
Tart
Tartin
was
huge
and
I
love
that
my
palette
was
confused
wether
it
was
having
a
savoury
or
sweet
dish.
It
was
the
perfect
balance
of
both,
beautifully
caramelised.
🤤
The
Pork
Chop
was
juicy
and
tasty,
with
a
bold
jus.
The
Fish
was
absolutely
delicious,
so
well
cooked
and
surrounded
in
a
sea
of
lemon
butter.
It
was
quite
difficult
to
eat
being
a
whole
fish
in
a
very
dimly
lit
venue,
I
could
barely
see
to
remove
the
bones.
🐟
An
amazing
spot
for
a
drink,
quality
food
and
service.
We
did
have
some
hiccups
with
very
long
wait
times
which
may
come
from
a
new
pop
up.
We
were
offered
complimentary
wines
for
our
wait
(their
wines
selection
is
ace!).
