This venue absolutely exceeded our expectations and made our private event unforgettable. From the moment we booked, Antonio was incredibly responsive and helpful, going above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly. Communication was prompt and professional every step of the way, and it was clear that Antonio genuinely cared about our experience—not just the business side of things. On the day of the event, everything was set up perfectly ahead of time. The bar was ready to go, and the staff were friendly, attentive, and totally on the ball. Food service was on time and delicious, and our guests were so impressed with the atmosphere and attention to detail. Special shoutout to G, the venue manager, who was an absolute legend and made sure everything was seamless throughout the night. The venue itself is stunning and full of potential—warm, stylish, and versatile. We felt completely supported and valued from start to finish. If you’re looking for a unique space with exceptional service for a private booking, this is 100% the place to go. Can’t wait to book again for our next event!

I had my partners surprise party in one of the function spaces (the one out the back with the big, beautiful tree!!🌴). Right from the get-go, one of the owners, Antonio was so kind, accommodating and super responsive! He made the process so easy, and he was there to help whenever I needed anything! We had such an incredible night 🥰, with great vibes, amazing cocktails and beautiful music 🎶. The surprise was great by the way and he had NO IDEA! 🤣 Antonio’s best friend, Alex even helped me cut up/ divvy out the birthday cake 🍰!! What a legend. We will definitely be back! For another function, or even just a cocktail 🍹 in one of Melbourne’s fun and quirky, hidden bars. Great place for a date, a party, or even just a boogie and beverage! Thank you again for all your help and beautiful vibes- much love ♥️

I’ve been to this venue several times over the years, most recently was for a friends private function. The vibe inside is so good, feels like your own private house party, complete with upstairs balcony where you can look over everything, throwing $100 bills off it, only to hurry back downstairs and catch them so you can spend them at the bar. The service is great, the owner introduced himself to us and made sure we were looked after and well fed. Honestly, this place is a gem. Everytime I’m here, I have a great night!

What a rad little gem on Commercial Rd! Love the decor and vibe of this place esp their neon lips and parasol ceiling. Their selection is cocktails are delicious and I loved their kimchi chicken with gravy! Staff are super friendly and attentive. This place would be great for dates and friendly catch ups and also big groups, their back courtyard with the light tree at night makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a enchanted forrest. Would definitely be back!
