The former Hawthorn Motor Garage was built in 1912. What wasessentially once a long, narrow, brick shed has been transformed into awood-fired, wine-fuelled bistro. This is Motor, a neighbourhood wine bar/bistrothat can suit any occasion. Whether you are in an intimate booth, private diningroom or perched at the bar, we have the ability to suit any occasion. We use thetimeless wisdom of wood fire cooking to celebrate local and seasonal ingredientsthat pair well with wine – a diverse list where our focus is not so much abouta certain ethos as such, we prefer lasting style to take precedence.

Had an outstanding meal at Motor - every dish was perfectly executed and delicious. The newly added mushroom pate is a real standout and absolutely worth trying. The service was attentive and professional, and the atmosphere created the perfect setting for a memorable dinner. Will definitely be returning soon!
