Equipped with an open fireplace in The Lodge, is perfect for small groups on those cold winter days and nights. Why not drop past for a quiet ale or wine and a light meal.

Located slightly further north than the more popular Fitzroy drinking strips of Gertrude St, Brunswick St & Smith St, our Johnson Street location is easily accessible for both local and nearby patrons of Brunswick, Carlton, Northcote & North Fitzroy.

The bar menu focuses on seasonal, fresh, artisan ingredients with a European restaurant flavour, cosy open fireplace and professional friendly service.
