Overview
UPDATE, APRIL 10: Big Poppa's temporary bottle shop has extended its hours and is slinging bottles from its Darlinghurst store from 2–6pm today, Friday, April 10. Its free cheese deal, with customers able to nab 300 grams of free cheese with a mixed or straight case of six wines, is still available, too. Before you head out of your house, have a look at the latest COVID-19 advice and social-distancing guidelines from the Department of Health.
Darlinghurst's home of wine, cheese and hip hop Big Poppa's is currently closed to dine-in service, in line with the Australian Government's current regulations surrounding non-essential indoor venues, but thanks to new temporary liquor licensing laws, it's allowed to sell booze via takeaway and home-delivery. And it's doing so in true Big Poppa's fashion.
The bar is currently selling a heap of its wines for "banging deals" (their words, not ours, but we tend to agree). The takeaway list features 14 pages of bangers, including plenty of wines in the low $20s, a fun pét-nat from Hunter Valley's Ari's Natural for $35, a $27 Konpira Maru skin-contact semillon, some fun chilled reds and a lush 2008 Dom Perignon for a casual $250.
There are also heaps of fun packs starting at $150 and running all the way through to $1000, and Big Poppa's wine glasses going for $12 a pop.
The Big Poppa's label wines — a pinot grigio and shiraz — come down to a bargain $16 when a dozen is purchased, too. Oh and if you order a mixed or straight case of six wines or more you get 300 grams of free cheese. Yes, free cheese. Just let them know if you prefer soft, hard or blue and it'll be added to your pack.
The wines are available to pick up from the store and free delivery is also available within five kilometres of the bar on certain days of the week, for orders of 12 bottles of more. Check Instagram for updates on when Big Poppa's is open and delivering.
