Rare to find cocktails priced at $13 anywhere in Melbourne CBD. Two cocktails for $25 in a place of this calibre is worth every penny. Fortunately off the map but definitely worth exploring for anyone new or old to Melbourne. Intimate at 7pm on a weekday and gets lively on a weekend. Another reminder that Melbourne is equal if not better than East Village NYC.

The place is just as advertised, although a bit darker than in the picture. The bartender knew his stuff and was pretty helpful. Don't trust the websites that say that there's a faje fridge that you have to go through to get to the bar ,there is however a winding alleyway that you need to traverse. The cocktails aren't served IN a syringe but with one( to spray them into your mouth, shall the mood strike you).

We had to search a bit to find this bar though loved the stroll through the ally to find the bar at the end of it. The beer and cocktails where priced very reasonably and tasted fine. Though downstairs the atmosphere underwhelmed us somewhat. All in all a nice place to have a drink and conversation! Without feeling uncomfortable while seeing syringes everywhere around you.
