Christian Blair, former bartender at Rockpool and Eau De Vie, now restaurateur and hospitality all-rounder, is the brains behind Crows Nest restaurant Annata. Located on the Willoughby Road retail and dining strip, Annata has a Modern Australian share-plate menu that's designed to be enjoyed like a degustation, along with an expertly-curated wine list. Choose a seat inside the classy but comfortable dining room or enjoy the spacious outdoor dining area that overlooks the street. We’re just a group of neighbourhood guys that like eating, drinking, and having fun with our friends. Whether it’s our cocktails, our wine list or our food, we go to great lengths to source excellent examples from small, integral suppliers with a great hand for quality, and a fond eye on the environment. From a quick drink in the bar to date night or even large groups. we have your evening covered, from light bar snacks, to A la Carte or one of our personally tailored set menus.

Annata accepts group bookings and can arrange a bespoke set menu for your event. The restaurant is available for private hire for lunch and for dinner, seven days a week. We are flexible in our approach for group bookings and private functions and would be more than happy to talk through your requirements and to create a bespoke experience to suit your special occasion.

At Annata we are passionate about food and wine. Whether you’re a guest in our bar or dining in our restaurant, our goal is to take you on an inspirational journey through the world of eating and drinking, in a relaxed and informal setting.
