Overview

After a hefty makeover in 2018, the Bomba space boasts a fresh fit-out, a vermouth-inflected drinks list, and day and night dining menus celebrating the flavours of Spain.

The rooftop sports an all-weather retractable roof and a second terrace space with a central copper bar and lots of high tables for a rendezvous with mates once work's done for the day.

The drinks list shows lots of love for vermouth, an aperitif that's hitting peak fashionability, with a lineup of drops hailing from Catalonia to the Hunter Valley.

A bigger, eight-strong tap list throws its weight behind indie Melbourne breweries, while the wine selection's focused both on organic and small Aussie producers, and lesser-known Spanish gems.

Meanwhile, the food situation features a tapas menu of old favourites and new creations, a covetable selection of Spanish cheeses, terrific charcuterie and some stellar mains to pair with all that good Spanish wine.

There's a pre-theatre menu if you're pressed for time and a bottomless lunch that features four cocktails and a range of highlights off the snack menu.
