Inspired by their travels through East Africa, Dean and Jeanelle Mariani ‘s bar polepole (pronounce pol-eh-pol-eh) is bringing Sub-Saharan beer and food to Melbourne CBD. The name is a Swahili expression that means ‘go slowly’ and is used by locals to remind people to relax and live in the moment. It captures the laid-back essence of the bar, which offers imported African beers and a shared food menu with a rib focus.
We proudly serve African and local boutique beers, crafty cocktails, and fine wines. Our tasty food – ribs and not ribs – is designed for sharing. Our name comes from the Swahili expression for ‘go slowly’ reminding us to live in the moment. Through sales of African beers and ciders we support YGAP and Women for Women in Africa.
