Bars | Mr. Moustache


Bondi is home to a wide array of restaurants and bars; so standing out from the pack can be quite difficult. However, Mr. Moustache has now arrived and, with its funky Mexican feel, is guaranteed to be a hit!

Last week, we attended the launch of their new cocktail menu where we drank delicious cocktails, downed some delectable food and found out the real story behind this quirky spot!

The interior draws on the mixed heritage that defines Mexico. The one side plays on Mexico’s French heritage which, Mrs. Moustache tells us, can be seen through the distinct architecture found in Mexico City. The bar is ornate and meticulously organised, showcasing over 40 varieties of Mezcal! For the true fanatics, another 30 are due to arrive over the coming weeks.

The head bartender, Mike Tomasic, presented us four of the newest cocktails. He collaborated with a New York City-based bartender to create what can only be described as some of the most inventive and tasty cocktails we’ve tried.

Using some weird and wacky ingredients – like dried apricot infused liqueur and star anise – we were being constantly surprised and equally delighted. This sampling was followed by Mrs. Moustache presenting a few Mezcals that we (not so gracefully) sipped down with a side of pickle juice (don’t judge it till you try it!).

The other side of the bar plays host to the cantina-style kitchen, which pumped out awesome food all night long.  It had the pace and feel of street food stall one would expect to find in Mexico, and the aroma coming from the kitchen kept us continually caught between wanting to snack on some more food and wanting to down another cocktail!

Our night’s eating began with the usual suspects of some amazing guacamole, veggies and some dips.  The night then heated up with some tostadas - scallop, beef and vegetarian – all packing strong flavours. The real showstopper, however, was the chorizo quesadilla with chipotle sauce. Spicy, meaty, cheesy and gooey - it was all-round awesome and we kept going back for more... and more… and more. If this sounds up your alley, be sure to check it out!

Mr. Moustache knows how to do Mexican -it’s clear from just looking at the place! Whether you’re down for a casual drink and snack after a long day at the beach, or even something to last well into the night - Mr. Moustache is the place to go. 

With an awesome crew creating the magic, eagerly guiding you through the fanciful menu, an evening here is set to be a memorable one! So what are you waiting for? It’s definitely time to head on down to Mr. Moustache.
