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.

Fantastic food! I had lamb ribs and chicken wings which were so yummy! The staff were friendly and I felt so relaxed to sit there with the beautiful view along the river. Would come back again

You come for the view and atmosphere and it is excellent. The food was good - we had both the gnocchi but the strawberry cocktail can not be recommended. All in all a good night out.

Dropped into Plus 5 for a quick bite and was pleasantly surprised! Grabbed the rocket salad, polenta fries and fungi pizza. Salad was spot on so fresh and simple! Fries were crispy and nice. Pizza hit the spot too. Food came out pretty quick. Staff were really friendly. Keen to come back.

I hosted a corporate event at Plus5 and was absolutely thrilled. We booked the terrace space, and the presentation, food and drinks exceeded our expectations. Shout out to Jodie, who went over and above to ensure we had the perfect event. We will be back!

We had a table with a waterfront view. The food was delicious, hot, and quick. The cocktails and wine 🫶 service on point, I bumped into the head chef and thanked him for our meal. He asked what we had? After quick chat, he was delighted we enjoyed our meal. How good is that!. Not many places would be so gracious. A perfect dinner and atmosphere on our last night in Melbourne.
