Pickled Poet

Best Known For

LP’s Hot Salami, the Poet’s Reuben, shareable grazing boards, and a curated selection of small-batch Australian wines, perfect for relaxed dining and drinks.

Nestled on Lawrence Hargrave Drive in Thirroul, Pickled Poet is a charming and welcoming wine bar and delicatessen where wonderful wines, craft beers, inventive cocktails, beautifully crafted share plates and fresh pastas come together in one of the Illawarra's most delightful neighbourhood destinations. The deli counter is a treasure trove of artisan cheeses, cured meats and carefully selected pantry staples - with a retail wall allowing guests to take a little Pickled Poet home and an online Italian food shop extending the experience even further. The menu is designed for sharing, crafted with love and savoured with genuine joy - dishes arriving as they are ready from the kitchen, each one worth the wait.
