The Stuffed Badger Is Bowen Hills' New Tapas and Cocktail Bar
With no drinks menu in sight, this bar makes every cocktail bespoke for each guest.
If sitting down for a beverage, asking the bartender to whip you up something special and getting a drink tailor-made to your niche, niche tastes sounds like your idea of boozy heaven, then prepare to become a regular at The Stuffed Badger. Opening in Bowen Hills on April 11, the new tapas bar is all about crafting alcoholic concoctions to suit each and every customer. Don't even try to peruse a cocktail list — you won't find one.
The venture from experienced hospitality trio Terry Tai, Thomas Marshall and Peter Clark has been five years in the making, and it aims to convey that passion in its food and drink selection. A small, carefully picked range of wines from France, Italy, Spain, Australia, New Zealand and the US is also on offer, but snacking on Spanish-influenced, locally-sourced dishes is the main attraction.
Drawing upon his experience in England and his previous role at an Italian restaurant in Brisbane, Clark's menu will change seasonally. Expect the likes of beetroot-cured salmon and four-cheese and serrano arancini, with all dishes under $16. It wouldn't be an Aussie tapas joint without breads, dips and charcuterie boards, of course, while dessert offerings include dark chocolate and beetroot brownies, cheese and chutneys, and red fruits with vanilla anglaise and black pepper honeycomb.
Find The Stuffed Badger at Shop 1, 9-11 Bowen Bridge Road, Bowen Hills from April 11. For more information, head to their website and Facebook page.
