Above Board

Above Board is a perfect spot for pre-drinks or after-drinks when out in Collingwood. It is a tiny room with only 16 seats that face the visionary bartender Hayden Lambert, as he gives you a a masterclass in storytelling and cocktail craft. Personalised drinks come with a side of dad jokes and dry wit.

Bars & Nightlife

Melbourne is awash with bars of all themes and clientele imaginable. Although you are never more than a couple of blocks away from a bar, they are mainly concentrated in central Melbourne, save for a handful in the Fitzroy and St Kilda areas. Rooftops are great for taking advantage of Australia's climate. Seek one out and enjoy the breezy setting with a drink in hand.
