The 1938 Sumner Post Office has been transformed into a vibrant, community-focused brew bar, blending heritage with contemporary design. The original concrete structure now houses an open, light-filled bar and restaurant, anchored by a large timber bar, colourful tiles, bespoke lighting, and an open pizza oven. A new rear addition accommodates kitchens and intimate seating. The design celebrates the building’s character while enhancing sustainability and functionality. Durable, low-maintenance materials, reeded glass, rich tones and warm timber details create a welcoming atmosphere. Natural light and industrial elements enhance the space, while 5% of beer revenue supports local causes—proving good design can give back.
