Chalice Bar and Tapas

Best Known For

Latin American Tapas: housemade empanadas.

Carlton locals get their Latin American groove on at Chalice Bar and Tapas on Lygon Street. Chill out to tunes while devouring a house special empanada washed down by a craft beer at this laid-back eatery, where stopping by for an after work drink with friends is encouraged. Perhaps a cheeky Pisco Punch cocktail or Argentinian red wine will get the evening started, along with Papas Bravas – hand cut potatoes with spicy tomato sauce and aioli – or herbed crumbed chicken breast strips, served with lemon and aioli. It's all about the deep fried, mouth-wateringly filled empanadas, so don't leave without wrapping your hands around a Chilean with beef, black olive, egg and onion; while sweet tooths will be tempted by the dessert version of apple and cheese, served with vanilla ice cream.
