Redfern Is Getting a New Bar from the Scout's Honour Team
Sydney's home of chicken 'n' chips sandwiches is moving into bar territory — just a few blocks away.
Redfern's much-loved sandwich haven Scout's Honour is expanding into the night as construction of their new small bar gets underway this week. The George Street cafe has recently posted cryptic Instagram posts about their next venture, Bart Jr., with poetic mention of a 'local legend' about all there is to go on.
Though little detail has been released so far, we do know that Scout's Honour owner Georgia Woodyard is taking the helm in this project. Their new Pitt Street digs will be named after a notorious ginger cat named Bart, who is "known throughout the hood for impregnating all of the Redfern felines he can get his paws on". Photos of this vagabond cat have been shared through social, as has a menu teaser of ocean trout, autumn plums and almond cream, topped with Yuzukoshō and puffed barley. The menu will be a seasonal one and is still being finalised in the lead up to opening.
While they do not yet have a firm opening date, we can say that the space is under heavy construction and the team is working busily to get the bar open quickly. For now, keep an eye on this space and on the Bart Jr. Instagram for more updates.
Bart Jr. will mark the third venture for the Scout's team, who opened their Paddington cafe Morris on Albion Avenue last year.
BART Jr. will open soon at 92 Pitt Street, Redfern. Keep an eye on this space for updates.
