Darlinghurst's Bar Brose Has Abruptly Closed Its Doors

There are only a few pleasures quite like digging into a dessert made of potato (and discovering that it is, indeed, delicious) and Bar Brosé has been has providing that particular one since it opened in April 2016. So it's with regret that we report that the Darlinghurst bar has closed its doors indefinitely — regret because we'll never eat that dessert again, and regret that we can't even tell you to go there one last time.

Co-owner Ed Loveday announced the closure in a Facebook and Instagram post this morning with "deep sadness", thanking staff and customers.

It is with a deep sadness that I announce the closure of Bar Brosé. I would like to thank from the bottom of my heart all of our staff past and present and our customers for their support. We look forward to continuing to take care of you at ACME and we hope to see you all again soon. Cheers

Bar Brosé was launched (and successfully run) by the ACME team last year — it was one of our favourite restaurants of 2016. Head chef Analiese Gregory left the bar earlier this year, after which Adam Wolfers took over the kitchen with Jewish eastern European food, until just recently. Loveday didn't want to comment at this stage but, needless to say, we'll update you if the team announce anything new.
