Cinema Nova was established in August 1992 as a collaboration between two landmark Australian independent cinemas - the Longford Cinema in South Yarra and the Valhalla Cinema in Westgarth, and opened as a twin theatre. Since that time Cinema Nova has grown to become one of the biggest and most popular independent cinemas in the world, with 16 theatres showing the best in quality indie, Australian and arthouse film. An essential part of the Lygon Street scene, Cinema Nova is a part of Carlton's cultural fabric and offers Melbourne more movies than any other cinema. Cinema Nova was among the first cinemas in the country to screen stage productions from around the world, and our Meet the Filmmaker and curated events programs allow our audience to experience film up-close.

Some of the crew that accompanied us to The Clyde told of tales of their time at Uni coming here and having memorable nights. Tonight ours was no exception. As a group of work colleagues, we came here for a post-training dinner and frankly, it was the ideal spot. Firstly, our table has this clever sign on it - where although table was reserved for 6.30pm, patrons are invited to use it until then. Clever. Menu was extensive and there is something for everyone including anyone with special dietary requirements. Vegetarians particularly have a good range to choose from. We ordered our meals and most people chose the variations of parmigiana. I had two entrees of Gyoza and a large serve of zucchini and eggplant chips. Everyone raved about their food and certainly the portion sizes were generous. But what really stood out for us was Matt, an employee who went above and beyond to accommodate one of us who had allergies and the meal she ordered was mixed up. His apologies, preparing a new meal, shouted her a beer for the inconvenience and overall attentiveness is rare these days but certainly didn’t go unnoticed by 14 of us. Everyone looked to me as a professional reviewer and nodded their approval. The Clyde has a few spaces where you can meet up that are separate from each other - whether it’s the main bar, the cute beer garden where we’d sat the night before for a quick coldie, the dining areas or even the roof top garden. The walls are covered in memorabilia, there are a few tv screens televising sport or other events. Staff are exceptional even when ‘under the pump’ at peak hour. Decor is interesting with fun ‘day of the dead’ artwork on the toilet doors. But it is pre Christmas so lots of decorations. Notes: wheelchair friendly, disabled accessible, kid friendly, high chairs available, parking is reasonable in and around the area.

Jimmy Watson was famous for his efforts to promote Australian wine. The JImmy Watson Trophy is the most famous award in Australian winemaking, presented for the best one or two year old dry red wine. The bar has its regulars, who seem to have been in place for the last 50 years. JImmy Watson does have a good range of wines, Australian and imported. They even have beer on tap these days. The bar staff seem to know their customers. If you want to know anything, just ask, they are quite civil. It's no longer odd to see a group of friends sharing bottle of wine on an outside table, as it would have been 50 years ago, thanks to JImmy Watson and his wine bar.
