Why you'll love Plus 5 South Wharf

  • Mesmerizing riverside City Views.
  • Classic, Premium & Deluxe Packages Available.
  • Easy convenience for your guests to Melbourne’s fantastic free tram zone.

Plus 5 South Wharf is a cocktail and tapas bar, set alongside spectacular views of the Yarra and Melbourne’s city skyline. It also makes a historic cargo hall its home, one built in Melbourne’s salad days, way back when in 1884.A mix of old and new, Plus 5 retains the bones of its setting’s former life, with high ceilings, exposed beams, and a large ‘5’ across one wall (albeit in stylish tiling rather than sea-ravaged wood). The space itself is modern, sophisticated, sleek - quintessentially Melbourne.And the drinks? Again, a mix of old and new, with classic cocktails sitting alongside a slew of modern concoctions. A great spot for birthday drinks, an office get together, or a Christmas party.Plus 5 is found along South Wharf’s Promenade, a stroll away from Spencer Street, and the city beyond. Southern Cross station is the nearest spot for trains, although it’s a pleasant walk down the Yarra from Flinders Street.

Arrived 1pm Saturday for lunch. Seated immediately and took 15 minutes for order to be taken. Drinks took a further 20 minutes to arrive. Chips took a further 15 minutes to arrive cold. Pizza followed 20 minutes later and was to be seen. Crust was wafer thin, cooked well enough but, yep, cold and juicy. We complained to the manager and he didn’t give a flying F. So we told all our mates, got onto Facebook and groups. So there is well over 50 families that will avoid this place. You’re not the only place to eat at in Sth Wharf, step up or ppl will stop visiting!

Make sure you sit outside at night time - really cute vibe. Maddie, our waitress was fantastic - attentive, provided great advice and was honest. She was very efficient. The food was Yumm too. The lamb ribs, meat balls, and halloumi are well worth the try.

Great pizza, amazing cocktails, super friendly staff. Confusing decor 🤨 what’s with the cushions? For a riverside bar I wish the styling was more thought through so I could post pics on insta! Still a great place to hang out though.
