Providing ravenous Sydneysiders with a raw and back-to-nature dining experience is Hunter & Barrel restaurant, tucked into Darling Harbour’s renowned Cockle Bay Wharf. Upon entering, diners are greeted by a rich atmosphere bubbling with the smells of tender meat as it smokes in their signature coal and spit rotisserie, while the sound of fire crackling transports the diner to a visceral place. Moodily lit, Hunter & Barrel is an ideal place for intimate dining, delving into deeply indulgent dishes full of seasonal, local produce. Begin with a Hunter’s platter of assorted cured and smoked meats, egg and pickles and an ear of spicy fried corn with green chilli salt before devouring a dish of coal roasted rump with herb and black pepper butter, or order a Hunter’s Feast of succulent meats.
