Owner of Barrel and Beast Jared Ingersoll is somewhat of a commitment-phobe. At least, he is when it comes to choosing a location of his much-loved eatery. Opting to go down a non-traditional path, Ingersoll is all about the pop-up business model.
As the name implies, Barrel and Beast is known for it's barrel-stored alcohol, and the use of the whole animal in the cooking process. The restaurant takes pride in creating a cosy atmosphere complete with shared tables, as well as locally and sustainably sourced ingredients.
For the entirety of winter, Barrel and Beast has found a home on Foveaux Street, Surry Hills. Prior to this it was in Pyrmont. Come spring, Ingersoll has hinted at a new location for the restaurant across the bridge. Barrel and Beast pop up will run until the end of August at 65-67 Foveaux Street (past the red door).
