Tucked beside Stelo at Pierre’s, Bar Stelo is our intimate escape for lovers of fine wine, crafted cocktails, and the art of Italian aperitivo. It’s a place to pause before dinner, linger late into the night, or gather with friends over small plates designed to share.
The bar’s spirit is classic yet contemporary — where vintage elegance meets a lively energy. Our shelves are lined with carefully chosen wines, local treasures from the Tamar Valley alongside celebrated Italian drops, and a cocktail list that nods to tradition while embracing innovation.
Cicheti and seasonal plates showcase the same dedication to produce and provenance as our restaurant — refined, yet unpretentious, created to spark conversation and complement every glass.
At Bar Stelo, time slows. Whether it’s a quick negroni at the counter or a night of stories and laughter with friends, you’ll find the warmth of Italian hospitality and the charm of Launceston’s most elegant bar.
