Things to do in Melbourne, Victoria: The Best Nightlife

June 9, 2021 Brain Ambrose

Lovely, laid-back Melbourne has something for everyone: family fare, local and international art, haute boutiques, multicultural dining, Australian and Aboriginal history, spectator sports, and pulsing, swanky nightlife. Cruise on the free City Circle Tram loop to check out unique attractions like the Royal Botanical Gardens and the Healesville Sanctuary, which buzzes with local animal species.

Great little place. Our host was an Italian/Scottish Aussie who appears to be part of the structure of the place; loves his whisky and is full of great advice. The sort of bar you see in movies but rarely exists in real life.

Paris Cat Jazz Club

Reviewed By Graphical_One - San Francisco, United States

Visiting Melbourne for business and a colleague bought us tickets for this place as a gift. Didn't know a thing about it. Went in and immediately liked the ambiance. The house wine was okay. The pizza was tasty, but not worth a special trip. The music was great. The musicians seemed to mingle well with the crowd during the break, the bartender was really friendly and attentive, the staff was great. The music wasn't too loud, so even though the place was packed out, it felt very comfortable and welcoming. They did three seatings that Saturday night, so we were hustled out after the first group, which we expected, but they weren't unfriendly about it. People really seemed to enjoy themselves.
