Mjølner Sydney

Tucked away in Redfern behind a true speakeasy entrance—blink and you’ll miss it—Mjølner is a full-throttle Viking banquet hall. Forget the kitsch. Carnivores and cocktail geeks are absolutely obsessed with this moody, theatrical space—think axes, shields, and drinking horns wielded by a charismatic, in-character crew. The play here? Unabashed, glorious meat. Those who frequent this boisterous dining room point you straight toward the venison tartare and the legendary beef bone marrow. Do the whiskey luge right down the bone—pure perfection. The crispy pork belly and beef ribs are massive crowd-pleasers, backed up by impossibly crunchy potatoes and fresh oysters. Wash it all down with a briny Sailors Solstice, a blazing glögg, or a proper horn of mead. Skål! It’s dark, it’s loud, and the bone marrow chocolate tart is a phenomenal finish. Just brace yourself for a beautifully chaotic, meat-fueled feast.
