Being in Australia...I needed some local beers! I looked on Yelp for a brewery and found this spot…read more I'm so glad that I did! When I walked in I was greeted and asked if I wanted to sit outside or inside. I opted for inside. After being seated I was told to either order off the QR code or go up to the bar. After a look over the menu, I saw that flights were available. This was my best option to try a variety of beers! I walked up the bar to place my order. Elphie (sorry if that's spelled wrong!) helped me. I told her I was from NY and wanted to try the best Australian beers; minus IPAs and sours. I asked her to pick the beers for my flight. She did an amazing job and I loved all of her choices. Each beer was unique and had great flavor. Thank you for your wonderful selection! For food I ordered the cheese plate. While it was delicious and paired well with the beers I realized I should have ordered some "cooked" food so that I could've tried something the kitchen has to offer as I'm sure it would have been delicious. I will absolutely come back here again when I'm on this side of the equator! I highly recommend coming here...Aussie local or not...this is the spot!

Well, we were wandering around a rather quiet Docklands, looking for a place to have a drink when…read morewe came across this brewery. The timing was pretty good in that regards, and as it turned out, this brewery was actually pretty good, but that is something that I have come to expect from a lot of these small time breweries. Yeah, the beer selection was really good, and the staff quite pleasant as well. What was even better was that the atmosphere was quite laid back, and it really wasn't all that noisy. This definitely turned out to be one of those places that I really liked.

First visit for two years. My things have slipped. My meal for $36 was extremely ordinary. It…read morelooked ordinary on the plate and tasted as it looked. Scallops with a snapper fillet. There's few good things I could say about the dish. It was near devoid of flavour. The snapper tasted like blotting paper. Everything was bland andnear tasteless. I would have been very unhappy at $18 let alone twice that. My wife liked her calamari though. I couldn't help scanning everything while I was there as this is a place I know well. I didn't like what I observed. Nothing appeared to have changed in two years. And, the staff were listless and seemingly bored and disinterested. This is a place on the slide. Intervention and energy needed urgently.

This is basically my favourite local pub, especially since the other local pubs really don't have…read moreany decent beers available, on tap or in the fridge. However, this one isn't just a craft beer bar, but it also brews their own beers as well, and their beers are honestly pretty awesome. They also have a decent beer garden, but unfortunately it isn't covered, meaning that you can't really sit in it when it is raining. However, I have to say that I certainly love this place.

There seems to be two types of pubs (or actually three, but the third type is the one you simply…read moredon't visit) in the inner north of Melbourne (which I tend to know a little better) - the trendy hipster pub, and the oldstyle classic pub. This is what I would put down as the second type. The front bar is pretty small and a part of me was wandering if I could squeeze in for a beer, until I discovered that it opens up in the back to a restaurant, and there are a number of tables down the side. Don't expect any fancy beers here, but it does have a nice quiet atmosphere about it. They don't have a beer garden, but I still quite like the old charm that this place has.

It's always good to visit a bar that I haven't visited before, and with Melbourne there are…read morecertainly quite a lot of bars in which this can be done, since they do tend to be literally popping up all over the place. Well, this one is certainly no exceptions, and while it isn't one of the best rooftop bars that I have visit, it is still pretty good. Yeah, in a way there certainly does seem to be pretty nice atmosphere up here, and the staff are pretty cool as well. Oh, and I probably should mention that they have some rather nice beers as well. Yeah, this place certainly is pretty cool.

What a wonderful day to sit outside for lunch on a rooftop cafe. Warm but a bit breezy and…read moreeventually rain chased us off the roof. The food is Fancy Hank's BBQ from downstairs but it was the open fresh air that did it for me.

Absolutely disappointing experience and appalling customer service. The vibe looked good and we…read moredecided to take a chance. We entered at 11pm and decided to get a bottle of sparkling. No one informed us about any policy. We paid for the bottle with 5% service charge which I do not think they deserved. We had a sudden work call at 11.30pm and grabbed the bottle to go, only for the staff to chase us to the front of the bar to inform us that they do not have a takeaway license. For christ sake, we already had bought the bottle!! Though it's alright, we respect policy. They highlighted that they needed to keep the bottle in the establishment. We asked if we could come back and finish it. They said they would keep our bottle. We rushed back to our hotel (Marriott- 200m away for the call). When we returned at 11.58pm, they had already thrown our bottle away. Unbelievable! They were quick to receive our money but equally quick to throw our experience out the window. No doubt, we returned almost at closing times but throwing our wine before closing time - if you wanna go by the book, that is still not your closing time. When we raised our grievances to the staff, she said she told us about closing time at 12 midnight. However, we emphasised that she should have let us know about the takeaway policy and license. Had we known, we would not have ordered a bottle. She looked at us blankly and simply replied "feedback received, but we do not allow anyone in after 12, so you have to leave". Quite honestly, ChatGPT / Claude / Grok could have conveyed more empathy. I am not a VIP customer nor am I a high spender. That being said, I value places with a human connection and empathy, and would regularly visit such places with joy and happiness multiple times. This place is not one of them. For this reason, I will never visit again. If you think likewise, and value authenticity and a true Aussie welcome, you would not visit this place. I hate to give negative reviews but please spend your money elsewhere.

In fact, I'd probably consider it to be one of those hidden gems that I so quite like.

Yeah, while this wasn't necessarily the best of the bars that I have visited, it still certainly did have some charm.
