Extravagant Inner City Bar at The Carlton Club


Why you'll love this venue

  • Unique, jungle-inspired décor creates a captivating atmosphere.
  • Ideal for a wide range of events, from corporate functions to birthdays.
  • Expansive tropical deck with a bar and delicious food options for all-weather events.
No, you're not hallucinating. That is a giant elephant head. Which, just for the record, is flippin' sweet. It's a huge elephant head, surrounded by plants, as the centrepiece of a colourful and exciting bar. All those flights of stairs - definitely worth it. Hasti Bala has quickly become quite the popular spot for parties since it opened its opulent/gaudy/tropical doors a little while ago. It's frankly unsurprising, given the decor, the space, and the good-time vibes that fill the building. Think along the lines of product launches, corporate functions, end of year parties, performances, birthdays and other special events.

Our server Ben was incredibly welcoming and helpful. He served us delicious food and drinks and made the evening a lot of fun by letting us request songs for the night. We’re from Perth but if we’re ever back in Melbourne we will definitely go back to visit him and the gang again.

Worst experience at a club. Was having a great night then one of the security put his foot out and tripped me then told me i was too drunk. Told him what happened and he continued to say i was too drunk while other security said "we'll check the cameras" while escorting me out. Never thought security would be as ignorant as that, so for that i will never come back.

If you judge a venue by the way they pour the beer then place is terrible. Every beer was under poured and the bar staff who could do with a personality injection refused to fill the pint glasses. Won't be coming back and neither will the friends we were with. Much better venues in the CBD.

The cheese set is delicious!! All the cheese tastes so creamy, very suitable for drinking. For the main course, we ordered the steak and chicken (I forgot the name of the chicken dish). The chicken was kinda mid, and nothing too special, I just tasted the bolognese sause and the mozzarella. The steak is good, tender and did not have much sauce so I can tasted the natural flavor of the beef.

Prepare to have your socks well and truly exploded off your feet. Found at the very top of the building there are palms. It's a very tropical vibe, to be honest. BYO Hawaiian shirt. There's a bar, the stars, and space for 200. Amazing.

The dining room is found just to the right of the main bar area. As one would probably expect from a dining room, it's slightly less rowdy and slightly less abundant in taxidermy as its sibling next door. What the dining room does have in a...
