Perched on the corner of Wickham and Gipps Streets, The Carro is a sibling for West End's Montague Hotel. Taking over the ground floor of the historic building, including the space formerly occupied by Sabotage Social, this character-filled bar and eatery features exposed brick walls, pressed-metal ceiling, and polished floorboards with a stunning dining room, two beer gardens, and a secret laneway which leads to the bottle shop.

The menu offers a range of Modern Australian dishes including delicious grazing plates, stone baked pizzas, and mouth-watering smoked meats. Customers can enjoy a libation or two while grazing on plates of cheesy garlic pizza bread, spicy chicken wings, Chinese-spiced calamari, and baked brie wheels served with crusty bread, and port and cranberry sauce.

For something more substantial, there's half a dozen tasty pizzas to choose from, as well as juicy wagyu beef burgers with aged cheddar and house made relish, and karaage chicken burgers with Asian slaw and kewpie mayo on milk buns.

Otherwise, there's fresh, wholesome salads which can topped with your choice of hot smoked salmon, smoked chicken, or garlic prawns; while meat lovers can order something from the custom-built Texas smoker - think smoked lamb rump served with potato salad, crispy pork belly with harissa roasted vegetables, and barbecued beef brisket with mac n' cheese, onion rings and slaw.
