Based in New Brighton Beach, The Salty Mangrove is a coastal eatery and community hub known for its seasonal food, relaxed atmosphere, and tide-like rhythm where meals flow into music and wine, creating the perfect seaside vibe.
On 6 October, Bar Miette will be transformed into a seaside-inspired haven, bringing the essence of New Brighton Beach and the laid-back lifestyle of the Mediterranean islands straight to the heart of Brisbane.
Moyle, best known for his elemental, fire-driven cooking style at Hobart’s acclaimed Franklin, now channels that philosophy into The Salty Mangrove in the Northern Rivers. His approach celebrates honest, produce-led cooking with a deep respect for Australian seafood and coastal traditions. For Bar Miette’s takeover, Moyle curated a menu capturing the spirit of his Balearic-inspired kitchen.
Diners can expect vibrant plates such as taramasalata with focaccia, raw tuna and bottarga, lamb neck skewers with olive and seaweed, and snapper sandwiches with creamy remoulade. Whole grilled mud crabs, fired over the hibachi, promise to be the showstopper, while hand-cut chips and braised wild greens round out the spread.
No seaside feast would be complete without drinks, and The Salty Mangrove has it covered. Guests can sip on signature cocktails like the Saltini and Mangrove Bloody Mary, paired with natural wines chosen to flow all afternoon. To complete the atmosphere, Dingo Balearico will be spinning records from midday, bringing a breezy soundtrack to the riverside setting.
With its unbeatable riverside views and Moyle’s culinary flair, the Bar Miette takeover promises a long weekend celebration like no other. Whether you’re booking a table for a leisurely lunch or dropping in spontaneously, this is one King’s Birthday party you won’t want to miss.
