Correction (10 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 9 October 2026.
This is a short list on purpose. Only four places in and around Highett passed our checks: two in Highett and two in Moorabbin. We have not padded it.
Only Wilbury & Sons and Hawker are bars. Deux Soeurs and Comma Food and Wine are restaurants, and we have not read a wine list for either, so treat them as sit-down options rather than wine bars.
Each place was checked against at least two sources: OpenStreetMap, its own website and the Australian Good Food Guide. This page prints no menu prices. Dates do not have to involve a drink, so each entry notes what a source says about food, hours and noise.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| A bar on Highett Road | Hawker | 292 Highett Road, Highett |
| A sit-down early evening dinner | Deux Soeurs | 1130 Nepean Hwy, Highett |
| A pub with live music listed | Wilbury & Sons | 6 Station Street, Moorabbin |
| Wednesday-to-Saturday dinner | Comma Food and Wine | 2 Station Street, Moorabbin |
Hawker — 292 Highett Road, Highett VIC 3190
OpenStreetMap tags Hawker as a bar. Its own site gives the address as 288 - 292 Highett Road, and AGFG lists 292 Highett Road.
We print no hours or menu details for it, found no accessibility details, and the site is undated. That makes it a good plan B for a casual first drink only if you ring ahead.
Stage: a low-stakes first meet-up, once you have confirmed it is open and what it serves.
Deux Soeurs — 1130 Nepean Hwy, Highett VIC 3190
Deux Soeurs’ own site and AGFG both give the address as 1130 Nepean Hwy. AGFG lists Alfresco Dining for it.
The AGFG listing shows hours of 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM Monday to Saturday and Sunday closed. That directory is owner-maintained and may be out of date, and the site is undated.
Stage: a sit-down dinner that starts early, so the evening has a natural end; confirm the hours before you book.
Wilbury & Sons — 6 Station Street, Moorabbin VIC 3189
Wilbury & Sons’ site lists Tue - Thu 4pm-late and Fri - Sun 12pm-late. OpenStreetMap carries matching opening hours.
Its site lists live music every Friday from 7pm, plus one Sunday each month, 3-6pm. Live music usually means louder, so conversation is easier on the other days. The site also lists Kids Eat Free Tuesday-Thursday 4-5.30pm, so that early window may be family-heavy.
Talk-ability: the Friday evening music is listed, so a Tuesday-to-Thursday visit is the safer bet for talking.
Comma Food and Wine — 2 Station Street, Moorabbin VIC 3189
Comma’s own site footer lists Wednesday to Saturday from 5pm, and gives the address as 2 Station Street, Moorabbin; confirm the start time for your day on the site. AGFG lists Alfresco Dining.
We print no menu prices for it, and the site is undated. Plan B for rain: it is on the same street as Wilbury & Sons, which lists Fri - Sun 12pm-late.
Split or splurge: we found no published prices, so check the menu before you commit to a booking.

How we checked
We checked every place on this page against at least two independent sources on 9 October 2026: OpenStreetMap, the places’ own websites and the Australian Good Food Guide. We copied no menu prices from these places’ own pages, so this page prints none. Menus, prices and opening hours change, so check with the venue before you go. The cover photo is illustrative, from Unsplash, and does not show any place on this page.
