Book NowAbout Ach Wine Bar
MacArthur Avenue holds one of Brisbane’s sharpest tables: a kitchen turning out blind, multi-course Middle Eastern feasts. Diners surrender control here—courses roll out unannounced, revealed only as they land. No muted spice profiles or safe choices. The kitchen delivers house-baked challah, seared scallops, and aged lamb punchy with Levantine seasoning. Regulars lean on the floor crew’s cellar depth, matching plates with Turkish and Lebanese pours or structured non-alcoholic flights.
- Chef-Hatted Blind Degustation: Multi-course blind-tasting menus where each course remains unannounced until it reaches the table.
- Punchy Middle Eastern Profiles: Assertive Levantine seasoning across plates like aged lamb, scallops, and warm house-made challah.
- Regional Wine & Mocktail Pairings: Curated beverage flights pairing regional Middle Eastern bottles and inventive zero-proof mocktails.
