Redfern and Surry Hills are undergoing a major transformation with Wunderlich Lane at its heart. The new precinct will feature a mix of dining, bars, beauty and wellness spots, boutique shops, and upscale residences, all anchored by the luxury hotel, The EVE. We’re talking: open-air walkways, creative office spaces, and delicious food as far as the eye can see.

The best part? The team behind LuMi Dining and LoDe Pies will be stepping into a new era, this time with a pizzeria.

Under the expert eye of pizzaiolo Matteo Ernandes, Regina La Pizzeria will open in October with contemporary pizza and a showstopping domed Fazzone oven. Also launching is R by Raita Noda, offering elegant Japanese dining and an omakase experience, alongside a new Gelato Messina store.

Developed by TOGA Group, Wunderlich Lane will open in stages starting this October. By the end of the year, the precinct will be a bustling hub with restaurants like Island Radio, serving up pan-Asia eats, and Baptist Street Rec. Club, a vibey cocktail and wine bar. Olympus will bring Greek hospitality with a welcoming atmosphere and year-round garden dining.

Later, The EVE Hotel will open its 102 rooms, an art collection, a rooftop pool and bar, and a lobby bar by Liquid & Larder.

Wunderlich Lane will start welcoming the hungry hordes in October at 2-4 Baptist Street, Redfern. Find more details here.
