The menu is packed with flavourful options, from charcoal-grilled steaks to stone-baked pizzas and tapas-style dishes. The kitchen is built around its famous Bertha charcoal oven, which gives many dishes a distinctive smoky flavour and perfectly grilled finish.
If you’re visiting Firehouse for the first time and wondering what to try, here are a few menu highlights that give you the full Firehouse experience.
Start with Something to Share
A good way to begin your first Firehouse visit is with a starter to share. The menu includes a range of small plates designed to get the table talking before the mains arrive.
Popular starters and sharing options often include dishes like flatbreads, loaded plates, or flavour-packed small bites that showcase the bold seasoning and grilling style the kitchen is known for.
Sharing starters is also a great way to sample a few flavours before moving on to the main event.
Try a Steak from the Bertha Oven
If there’s one thing Firehouse is known for, it’s steak. The Bertha charcoal oven cooks at extremely high heat, giving steaks a caramelised crust while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
First-time visitors often go for a classic grilled option such as:
- Rump steak served with rustic fries and pepper sauce
- Sirloin steak cooked over charcoal
- Grilled steak dishes with sides like garlic potatoes or slaw
The smoky flavour from the charcoal grill is what makes these dishes stand out and keeps guests coming back.
Burgers That Live Up to the Hype
If you’re not in the mood for steak, the Firehouse burgers are another great choice. Cooked on the same charcoal grill, they deliver the same rich flavour but in a more casual format.
Guests regularly highlight the burgers as a must-try item, often served with toppings like slaw, cheese, and sauces alongside rustic fries.
They’re hearty, flavourful, and perfect if you’re visiting with friends or looking for something satisfying without going for a full steak.
Don’t Skip the Stone-Baked Pizza
Another Firehouse favourite is its stone-baked pizza, cooked in the same high-heat ovens that power the kitchen. The crisp base and generous toppings make it a strong option if you want something a little different from grilled dishes.
Some pizzas even combine grill flavours with classic toppings — including steak-based options that bring the best of both worlds.
Finish with a Cocktail
Firehouse isn’t just about food. The bar also serves a strong selection of cocktails, wines, and drinks that pair perfectly with the grilled menu.
Many visitors start their evening with cocktails or finish their meal with one at the bar. With creative mixes and classic favourites available, it’s an easy way to round off your first visit.
