Yakka Records & Bottle-O is a joint endeavour between local Port Kembla partners James & Chelsea.

In between COVID lockdowns & taking a hiatus from their respective careers in music + the arts, they spent every spare minute exploring regional Australia and enjoying everything good about it: the people, the produce, the wine and beer, and the unique & wonderful cultural fabric that make up small towns of Australia. The concept for Yakka started here.

Yakka Records & Bottle-O is an ode to this and everything they love to drink, eat and experience, and what they most love sharing with friends and family. Through Yakka, James & Chelsea want to honour and highlight regional Australian producers as much as they can from places they’ve been and plan to get too in the near future.

You can expect to find natural, biodynamic wine from around Australia and the world, rotating craft beer from regional Australia, small batch Australian spirits, non-alcoholic wine + beer + spirits, vinyl records & deli goods in store.

Yakka also plays host to intimate events around the long communal tables - bringing passionate people in to share their knowledge on all things wine, food, beer, music & culture. Keep an eye on the event page for more details on what’s coming up.
