A week of lasts
our final hurrah
After plenty of late nights, familiar faces and good times behind the bar, Baptist Street Rec. Club is pouring its final week of drinks before the space becomes something new.
From Tuesday 27 to Friday 30 January, we’re running a last round of the Rec Club staples — a chance to squeeze in the things that made this past year what it was, before we reset the room and open the next chapter.

Vitelli’s Upstairs
Opening 10 February
Vitelli’s Upstairs is an Italian restaurant and bar in Redfern, inspired by old New York red-sauce dining and the kind of nights that don’t rush. The menu centres on fresh pasta made daily by the Grana team, alongside generous Italian-American classics, lighter plates and desserts worth saving room for.
Early in the evening, it’s a relaxed neighbourhood restaurant built for sharing and settling in. As the night unfolds, the bar comes into focus: classic Italian cocktails, amaro on hand, and a late-night menu for when you’re not quite ready to leave.
Eat well, drink comfortably, and let the night go where it wants.
