A board built for slow afternoons and good company. Cured meats, cheese, and pickled bites, best shared over a glass of red.

Grab a table and dig in.

Seared beef, done right, sitting on a bed of fresh crunch.

Marinated beef strips, red onion, cherry tomatoes, cucumber, rice noodles, mesclun lettuce and cashews, tossed in a thai herb dressing.

Light enough for lunch, punchy enough to remember.

Order the Thai Beef Salad next time you're in.

The thing about a great local is you do not need a reason to show up.

A midweek drink that turns into dinner. Dinner that turns into another round. An afternoon with no plan that somehow becomes the best one.

Find us on Barker Street, Griffith. Tuesday to Saturday from 8am through to late. Sunday and Monday until 3pm.

Tag the person you would bring here this week.

It's been a slow transformation for Gryphons at the Griffith Shop which has now become Barker Street Social

15/09/2026

Same local. New name. Gryphons is now Barker Street Social.

Same team, same favourite table, same familiar faces, same food and drinks you know and love.

From breakfast and coffee to long lunches, intimate dinners, group celebrations and a few cocktails that turn into one more, it’s still the place to settle in, catch up and stay a little longer.

Good food, quality w**e, crafted drinks and plenty of reasons to keep coming back.
A fresh new look for the local you love (or are soon to discover!).

Come say hello, settle in and enjoy Barker Street Social.

Some nights don't need a reason. Just the right setting and a table full of good things.

Dim enough to relax, good enough to linger.

Come find your corner of it.
