The leafy, old-school suburb of Kew is home to a handful of cosy neighbourhood wine bars, which are great for a mid-afternoon drink or a laidback weekend night with a bottle. From impressive wine lists and takeaway bottles to small bites and sharing plates – these are Kew's best bars to lose a few hours in.

Bar Alba
Bar
From the team behind Centonove, this neighbourhood wine bar offers a range of Italian drops you can’t find elsewhere in Australia. Enjoy a glass at the marble bar with some elegant Italian-leaning share plates.
Cru Wine Bar
Bar
This family cafe and wine bar will take you right through your day – from all-day brunches and house-roasted coffee in the morning, to Corsican-inspired dishes and a 400-strong wine list at night.
Bianchetto
Bar
The intimate spot has Americano cocktails prepared tableside and opulent olive oil Martinis. Plus, snacky flatbread stuffed with mortadella and spicy sausage spiedino, and 1960s Italian films projected on the walls.
