Subi Goes Full Parisian

Lums Wine Bar

433 Hay Street, Subiaco Don’t you just love it when a group of young free-spirited hospos eye off a beautiful old building and want to breathe life back into it? That’s where Subi is the winner as the enterprising team behind Bark Bar throw a whole lotta love, spit and polish into the old E.A. Lum’s building in Hay Street and transform it into a shrine for wine. The ownership group - Mitch Jenkin, Lee Hutchings and Oliver Wasse (the brains behind Bark), along with Ashley Allen, are delving into the building’s history dating back to the 1900s when it was the suburb’s grocer and provisions merchant and are proud to pay homage to the original owners, Emily and Charles Lums. The bevvies, given the conducive character setting, will be wine-centric along with beers and exotic cocktails. The opening is expected around June 16.

Can’t wait? Neither can we.
