Shisha is a place I came a long time ago and thought the food was nice but had no idea what knafeh was
Now armed with new information I came with 2 others and were seated at a upstairs area which I did know about
Everything we had was delicious. Lamp dumplings are something different to try but I liked it. Haloumi chips is a great idea. My burger was ok and the others enjoyed there steak. The knafeh was a new taste sensation! Could easily had a large one to myself!
Prices though are a bit expensive but this is the only negative I can give!
Instead of looking for there food van or street stall ,just come here
Found the menu disappointing but admittedly I was expecting mezze and pide rather than burgers and ribs. To me, this is after all the home of knafeh, the glorious baked cheese dessert. Yes, the Bar & Grill in the restaurant name is a dead giveaway but I've always just known it as Shisha.
Had the Wagyu beef burger and the chips and dips. Rookie mistake - the burger comes with fries and the dips didn't really add anything to the chip dish. The dips would have been much better served with a traditional accompaniment of bread. Or just give me gravy with the chips.
Nice service, great decor and ambience.
I had a massive knafeh craving which I just couldn’t curb. It was ongoing for 2 days so had to be done. Shisha Bar & Grill have food too (well shisha’s and a whole lot more also), but on this occasion we only came for dessert, and the dessert on its own was great enough to get a mention.
Honestly I came for the knafeh and fell in love with the sticky date pudding. This was one amazing pudding. Deliciously soft and warm, with cold vanilla ice cream melting away on top – it was one amazing combo that perfected this dessert meal. Pudding had a strong flavour but it was not too sweet, and I couldn’t keep my spoon away.
Knafeh came out as a massive serving, could totally see how it was $12. This craving all began after my first encounter with ‘knafeh’ the food truck, which proved how food trucks can be wildly successful with just one main offering. Shisha’s version wasn’t completely on par with Knafeh’s, however was a strong contender.
If you only have room for one dessert though, make sure it’s the pudding because this one is a true winner!
The highlight of Shisha is the friendly and always welcoming staff, along with good quality food and a tempting menu. My only complaint is the coffee, just too weak for my taste. Overall I recommend this place as a weekend lunch/brunch/breakfast spot in a convenient location.
On a chance at the last minute I made a booking and nothing was too much trouble.
Service was friendly and knowledgeable. We had something we needed to be out for, so asked for recommendations on what was going to be good within our timeframe. We ordered and everything arrived when it needed to.
Gorgeous lamb cutlets and super flavoursome chicken from the grill. Knafeh for dessert was a real treat and well worth trying. We wish we weren't so rushed, but we will come back, and bring friends to share this great venue!

A taste for knafeh saw me inevitably drawn to the source of knafeh goodness, Shisha in Croydon Park. We came early on a Sunday evening, with our eating shoes on. Shisha markets itself as a bar and grill but the menu felt a little disjointed, as though it couldn't decide whether to go with a tapas style of eating, or a heavier 'food that sticks to your ribs' approach. Our ordering was similarly disjointed - a pork belly starter, fattoush and a chicken burger and chips. The pork belly was nice but unexciting, the other dishes were very good. The portions were so generous that we had no room left for knafeh which was frankly amazing. That being said, I was still feeling pangs of food envy looking at the table next door demolish their knafeh and a couple walking out with their takeway knafeh in a box :O Overall we really enjoyed our meal, as well as the friendly attentive service and the tasteful surroundings. Looking forward to a rerun visit and enjoying the enticing looking outdoor area on a balmy summer evening.
I came here a while ago and had the grilled chicken burger. It was delicious. It seems like the menu has changed a little or maybe I just don't remember correctly. The all day breakfast menu looks great. I am looking forward to trying many of the dishes!
Amazing authentic Lebanese dishes. Cocktails, wine, mains and dessert were all delicious
My brother and I are new to the area and needed to source out a local Shisha bar. We did a quick google search and found Shisha 61. We were pretty hesitant simply because the reviews weren't great but being five minutes from our place, we thought we'd give it a go.
What the hell is wrong with the people posting? This place is great and Mike and Bianca are freaking top people. Coffee is fantastic, food was great and so was the Shisha, all served with a smile and good chit chat. Been back a few times now and never disappointed.
Recently renovated (feels expensive) with a very modern feel and a great bar. Downstairs, outside and upstairs seating away from the road. Mediterranean entrees, with mains mostly steaks, ribs and burgers. Great dessert menu as well, with chocolate praline tart being my favourite. Good service and moderately priced.
These guys have got it right!
As soon as you walk in, you are greeted warmly by fabulously friendly and well presented people with great attitudes.
You are made to feel at home. The decor is simple and modern. The menu is well set out and has a good variety of healthy options aswell as tasty options to treat yourself with - the chocolate tart dessert is to die for!
They have a great looking function room out the back too. I can't wait to go try out some more of their delicious menu! And to have another friendly laugh with their staff :)
This place was great,
Service was amazing and the atmosphere was so welcoming. I would definitely recommend this place. Also they have the best shisha in the area. Well worth the visit. Food was great as well I recommend the steak and chicken menu selections. The lamb ribs are to die for as well.
Keep up the good work guys.
Wow, things must have changed dramatically over the past 12 months. We have took our elderly mother (90) there & the wait staff couldn't have been more affable. Nothing was a bother. Food was great & served in a timely manner. This was my 2nd visit & will be back in December from Adelaide & will try again☺
