Fire Kitchen + Bar Kangaroo Point

Fire Kitchen + Bar is a garden-style American barbecue restaurant and smokehouse tucked away in a side street of Kangaroo Point.

From humble beginnings as a food truck, thanks to its popularity with the punters Fire has made a permanent home for itself in a covered al fresco space underneath The Docks on Goodwin.

Diners can take a seat in the leafy fairy-lit courtyard and indulge in a delicious smokin'hot menu starting with snacks like chicken wings (with BBQ, ranch or chilli sauce), mac'n'cheese (according to past customers the 'best ever'), mini cheese kranskis and dirty or loaded fries.
