Great views of our vibrant city. From the calmness of river boats to the illumination of Crown’s flames. Food elegantly prepared and presented. Cocktails of Paddington Bear, quirky but smooth to the palate. A great way to celebrate a birthday!

Staff were super friendly and felt like they went out of their way to ensure we had a good time. Went during happy hour and enjoyed the great specials, plus splashed out on a couple of cocktails and delicious food (prawn cocktail, caviar on toast, oysters, charcuterie board). All was fabulous! Highly recommend.

Awesome rooftop joint with city view. Has a grungy, yet classy atmosphere which pairs perfectly alongside their cigar and wine selection. The bartender was beyond knowledgeable on the cigars and recommended the perfect drink to pair with them, which was even off the menu. 100% will be a repeat customer when I return to Melbourne.
