For months people have been whispering about the iconic venue affectionately known as the ‘old Rob Roy’ since she had some work done. This was no lunch-time botox, but a total refurbishment guided
by Melbourne designer and street-artist, Kano Hollamby.
The Public Bar has been aired out and warmed up with stretches of wood panelling, vintage furniture and ironic curios, giving the room a relaxed, holiday-cabin
feel. Local record store selectors spin old soul and new grooves most evenings, giving punters somewhere fresh to wind down - or wind up - after work.
Sideshow is an intimate private bar that’s homely but unlike anywhere your relatives have ever lived. Lined with customised wallpaper inspired by a tropical greenhouse it’s the perfect size for a private
party for up to 80 of your closest friends.
Joining the Public Bar and the Band Room is a plushly carpeted walk-through - that’s carpet on the
Just out the back door you’ll find yourself nestled in the back lanes of old Fitzroy and the often bustling outdoor courtyard.
The Band Room has had a complete refurb since its sticky-carpet days in the Rob Roy. With a capacity of 170, the Band Room is a mid-size live music and performance space with great sight-lines and a full-length bar for quick service.
Workers Club has a full band PA, DJ equipment and stage lighting supplied by Johnston Audio Services.Specifications provided upon request as the gear changes regularly.
When you’re ready to call it a night don’t forget to take a peek into the Gertrude Street window box. It features revolving installations by local and emerging artists and stands in good company in a neighbourhood full of galleries.
