Reviews for The Penny Black

I went to The Penny Black last Friday for a gig, and I have to say, it was absolutely fantastic! The venue itself is such a cool spot – intimate, welcoming, and full of energy. The vibe there is unmatched, and you can tell it’s a place that really knows how to host a great show. One thing I really appreciated is how inclusive and LGBTQIA-friendly the venue is. It’s a space where everyone feels comfortable, and that kind of environment makes a huge difference when you're out enjoying live music. The staff was also amazing – friendly, attentive, and really made sure everyone was having a good time. Overall, I had an awesome experience at The Penny Black. If you’re looking for a great venue with fantastic music and a welcoming atmosphere, definitely check it out. I can’t wait to go back!

Superb friendly service and atmosphere. With an amazing indoor open fire, live music, concert stage, centre room and outdoor area. Jason the manager was very helpful and friendly keeping the open fire burning. The food was delicious and substantial and the drinks are the best value in Melbourne

The sun was out and these guys had Thursday night $25 steak night and a beer garden, so we thought we'd give it a go. We certainly weren't disappointed! The steak was a little fatty on the ends but besides that it was super tender, cooked well and came with a very generous serving of either chips & salad or veggies & mash and your choice of sauce. We also timed it with their very generous happy hour (5-7pm) which was $10 selected pints, $8 house wines and $12 selected cocktails. The staff were friendly and the venue had a cool vibe, with plenty of different places to sit.

Great large venue. 3 main sections - front of house, back room & beer garden further out back. Unsure if there are other toilets, but lots of stairs to get to main toilets, so not ideal if you have a disability. Not a huge selection of wines at the bar. No Riesling & No Moscato. Love that there’s live music to support local acts. Loved getting to see @demie.music playing originals & a few covers. Food available at very reasonable prices, averaging $20,

The bloody Mary I had here was so good! Helpful and friendly staff. The back garden spot was so enjoyable, perfect on a sunny day.
