Overview

Retro-chic & Parisian-inspired laneway bar, made for cocktails, wine, food and good company.

Located on the corner where Swanston meets Little Collins Street, next to Melbourne Town Hall, Cabinet Bar and Balcony is a mid-city oasis, inviting to an intimate and friendly setting over two levels.

Downstairs, you find a charming interior space, decorated with a blend of European furnishings and retro-chic decor. Upstairs is an outside rooftop, or as the name hints, a balcony, overlooking the action on Swanston Street.

Here you can enjoy something from the carefully chosen list of wines, a crafted signature cocktail named after regular customers, or a local brew, perfect to pair with some delicious tapas or a flatbread pizza from an ever changing menu.

Open most evenings, and on weekends from around noon, Cabinet Bar and Balcony is a great spot for everything from fun and casual after works, to pre-theatre dinner and drinks, and chill Sunday sessions in the sun. You can also book the venue for private functions.
