Best Bars in Brunswick East
Bar
Bahama Gold
An incredible sound system. Absurdly good value house wines. And an unusual canteen-style window that passes drinks right onto the footpath. This is one of Melbourne’s most fun wine bars.
Bar
Rocket Society
Lebanon’s little-known student-led quest to conquer outer space inspired this charming wine bar. Here, Rumi’s owners offer flatbread sandwiches, charcoal grilled lamb skewers and Lebanese wines.
Bar
Uncle Joe's
The younger sibling to Northcote's Joe's Shoe Store.
Restaurant
Old Palm Liquor
The sibling of Neighbourhood Wine is cool and comfortable. Take a seat at the bar, or in front of an open fire, and enjoy the rotating share plates and easy-drinking wines.
Restaurant
The Beast
Burgers, booze and bands – that’s been the brief at The Beast since day dot. Years on, it still delivers with hefty two-handers (including respectable plant-based options), cheeky and creative cocktails, and plenty of local music.
Bar
Eydie’s
A stylish yet unpretentious little bar.
Bar
Atticus Finch
Capturing the warmth and glory associated with bars of a bygone era.
Shop
Brunswick East Wine Store
Bottle shops don’t get more personal than this.
Bar
The Alderman
A home away from home for many East Brunswick locals.
Bar
Mr Wilkinson
A sophisticated and cosy wine bar that's extra good in winter.
Bar
ReWine Bar and Wineshop
When you’ve finished your drop, just come back and refill.
Bar
Bridge Road Brewers Brunswick East
This colourful 350-capacity outpost for the beloved Beechworth brewery offers 30 taps, two bars and a jet-setting menu of crowd-pleasers. And it’s a working brewery, too, which means all of the Bridge Road favourites, plus site-exclusive special releases.
Bar
Creature Bar
This self-proclaimed “dive bar for nerds” was born out of Melbourne’s music scene. Swing by the record-slinging spot for local beers and cocktails with names ripped from the world of horror. Or lose a few hours over Jenga and Mario Kart.
