Bloodwood Restaurant & Bar

Bloodwood was absolutely exceptional. The food was perfect, truly one of the best meals I’ve had. Every dish came out hot and beautifully timed, and the staff were incredibly attentive, checking in without ever feeling intrusive. A special shout out to Imi, who was an amazing waitress! I can’t wait to recommend Bloodwood to all my friends and come back myself.

We had an amazing night at Bloodwood. From the moment we walked in, every staff member greeted us and the whole place had such a warm, welcoming feel. The food was excellent, but what really made the night was Zoe. She was engaging, thoughtful, and completely on point — the kind of service that makes you feel genuinely cared for. She turned a lovely dinner into a truly memorable celebration. Zoe made the night, and Bloodwood shines because of people like her.

I was part of a large group dining at Bloodwood last night. The service was absolutely amazing. Zoe in particular was carful getting to know our names and our dietary needs. The food was so delicious. Thank you very much to the Bloodwood team.

GENUINELY one of the best restaurant experiences I’ve had in a long time. came in with my girlfriend to get dinner before a concert and were greeted by friendly staff. we got the chargrilled lamb rump and swordfish. very nice dishes, totally wasnt expecting it to be honest. lowkey would go again :)

Absolutely delicious food in a really cute setting. Staff are lovely, drinks are also solid. We had the school night deal - the lamb was a particular stand-out.

Gorgeous hidden gem in Newtown, you must order the haloumi in filo and the steak with nduja! Their pecan pate is also delicious and super unique. Check out my food Instagram @erinxeats for more!

26th April 2025 - With a very unassuming frontage to the restaurant this establishment has an unexpected ongoing spacious dining area as you enter further into the restaurant. A fantastic variant menu with flavours to appease all appetites. I personally loved the chorizo and octopus dish and the crispy whitebait. Such a great ambience. The service was very attentive and I know this may be odd to say but a little too attentive. With no specific wait staff assigned to designated areas we were hassled just a little too much during our dining and even at one stage a bottle of beer was emptied into the wrong glass despite the good intentions. However, the food and location is fantastic - may need to designate staff to their areas.

An impromptu drop-in to a fully booked Bloodwood on a Saturday night resulted in a kerbside table ideal for people watching. Fortunately the winter evening was mild and the rest of the experience did not disappoint. The staff were prompt and friendly. The service was brisk & matched by the food. Would return (though will book in advance next time!)
