The Hill Eatery Is Opening a Florida Keys-Inspired Bar in Bondi

Think flamingos, coconut palms, key limes, hold the tropical cyclones.

The crew behind The Hill Eatery are opening a brand new bar in addition to their beloved North Bondi brunch spot. Taking tropical, summery inspiration from Florida Keys, The Hill Bar will sit right beside its parent eatery on Campbell Parade. If anything, Florida Keys is highly underrepresented in Sydney's themed bars (if at all), so we're on board. Think flamingos, coconut palms, scuba diving, key limes, rum cocktails, parades, hold the tropical cyclones.

Celebrated as a staple North Bondi brunch spot with their Breakie Boards and killer Bloody Marys, The Hill have quite the loyal following to make this project seriously viable. When the space next door came available, the Hill team jumped at the chance to extend their bar. They've knocked through the wall are currently splashing pastel paint, white-washed timber and custom flamingo wallpaper everywhere. But the Hill team also promise to bring a little Australiana to their Florida Keys theme. Here's the wallpaper they're hinting with on Facebook:

Details on the menu are being kept under wraps for the moment, but we're guessing it will continue the whole paddock-to-plate philosophy from next door into bar nibbles. Tipple-wise, The Hill will be launching and serving their very own craft beer from the bar, Lighthouse Kolsch by The Hill, alongside brews from Young Henrys, Rocks Brewing Co and there’ll be plenty of tropical cocktails on offer, with Hippocampus rum aplenty.

Launching on November 26, The Hill Bar will be open just in time for summer. Bring on the mojitos.
