A vibrant Newtown favourite where creative European-leaning plates meet a standout natural wine list. Chef-owner Pasi Petänen brings unexpected flavour pairings—think potato dumplings with XO trout and devilled eggs with trout roe—served in a relaxed bar-bistro setting on King Street. Drop in for snacks and glasses or stay for something longer.

Paski Vineria Popolare is a restaurant & wine bar, with more casual vibe on the ground floor and more curated food and restaurant service on the upstair floor. The venue serves Italian food, freshly made pasta, from small individual nibbles to more substantial dishes, including mains and desserts.
