At Hunter & Barrel, a great dining experience is never an accident. It is the result of passion, precision, and a shared dedication across every kitchen and floor team.
From the artisans managing our barrel-aging program to the chefs controlling the open flames and the hospitality teams welcoming you at the door, our people are the heart of everything we do.
The Hunter & Barrel Service Experience
Craftsmanship Over Quickness
Our team takes the slow path to flavour. Whether it is ageing house spirits for weeks in oak barrels or slow-roasting premium cuts over charcoal, our culinary and bar teams respect time and technique.
Hospitality Built on Connection
We believe dining out should feel grounded and authentic. Our front-of-house teams focus on warm, attentive service that turns first-time visitors into familiar regulars.
The Spirit of the Feast
Food brings people together. Our menus are designed around shared feasting: bringing tables to life with generous platters, bold coal-roasted flavours, and curated drink pairings.
Culinary Leadership & Kitchen Precision
Our Head Chefs and Restaurant Managers bring decades of combined experience, led in the kitchen by Head Chef Thomas Brimble. His 20 years span Michelin-starred restaurants in Europe and the fire-driven kitchens of Hong Kong and Bali, and he cooks by a simple rule: honour the produce, master the flame. Working with trusted suppliers like Portoro, our teams treat every cut with precision, balancing heat, smoke and seasoning so the natural flavours shine, and carry that same care into the dining room.
