This place is a weird little dive bar hidden upstairs down an alley way which really adds to its charm.
I loved going here with my partner and having a couple of drinks by the window looking out on the laneway. The drinks were great too.
We are from Brisbane but we have been here a few times and really enjoy it.
Good food. Reasonably priced.
Haven’t been to this little place in a while and was so happy to see it was the great product I remembered. Had the juice of the day watermelon mint and the bagel of the week. Both excellent and my coffee was tasty too. The staff were super friendly and entertaining. Playing some funky disco tunes certainly made the brunch more chill. I need to come back more often! Thanks guys :)
Try the Aloha pizza so delicious. Staff were friendly. Small venue with no happy hour so for two glasses of wine it was $17. Nice place to eat and run. Will go back for sure.
Hell's Kitchen is a really nice place to relax if you want to take a break from the bustling street of Centre Place. As it is located upstairs, you can enjoy your lunch while looking down the street. My first experience here was great. I ordered Hello-me, which is a burger with slaw, cheese, coriander and golden raisins. It tasted unique — I'd never had burger with that kind of flavor before but it was not weird at all. In fact, I loved it and highly recommend Hello-me if you come to Hell's Kitchen. I also tried the Inglorious sausage, which has bigger portion than Hello-me but was not as glorious as I expected it to be. It was still good though, but I'd give Hello-me 5/5, while just about 3.8/5 for Inglorious sausage. On a side note, the service was good and very attentive.
This is a great little lunch place for a Friday afternoon. When we walked in, the first thing we were asked wasn't "do you want a table?" but "do you want a beer?". The food was tasty as well. I could see meyself coming here on another Friday for lunch and not leaving until close. It's also located away from all the pedestrians on Centre Place with it being on the first level.
Hells Kitchen is one of those most Melbourne of venues. To find it you need to walk down a laneway (Centre Place) then up a flight of stairs. Those who make the effort to seek it out will be rewarded.
Friendly, good food, great spot above Centre Place. Always happy to head to hell's for a Friday lunch with a cheeky drink and a pulled pork burger.
Great atmosphere especially if you go upstairs and get a window seat. It's also an escape from the hustle and bustle noise of the lane below. The margherita pizza is nice and nicer when you place chilli flakes on it. Also they play good tunes. This place has improved since the last time I was here years ago.
This place is everything. I enjoy eating the pizza here, they're on par with the pizzas at Lucky Coq in Prahran. Just close enough. 👏🏽
Hands down bringing in the loveliest of service. This place is quite lowly lit, so anyone who plans to take a good photo for their Instagram feeds. This ain't the place unless the dark theme with flash on is yo thang. ✨
You pay beforehand before you sit down or you can sit down first but still gotta pay beforehand but really this doesn't matter because this place is chill as. Although, I'd pay first before the food arrives. 😊
Great bar, very cool vibes and the owner is lovely. A huge selection of drinks, a nice atmosphere and big windows that would open in summer for a nice breeze. In winter it’s cosy
Great place to meet friends before a night out in the Melbourne CBD. Interesting selection of food and even better selection of beverages in an inner city bar. Great atmosphere unlike so many city bars that try to be swanky with overpriced drinks.
Perfect little bar hidden away from the crowded city, love the chill atmosphere. A great place to bring a few friends for some drinks.
Such an awesome bar for locals or tourists. The bartenders are some of the nicest people I’ve met. Good selection of everything including beer and spirits. Food was great too, I tried a katsu burger that was delicious. Great central location with lots of other spots around.
Great spot for a quick bite in Melbourne’s CBD. Hidden upstairs on the popular food street Centre Place, this bar/restaurant has a great view of the street below without the hustle and bustle.
Service was really friendly and I can see they do get busy on week day lunches.
There is an extensive bar so I imagine evenings can be a fun stop.
Menu was nice spins on lunch classics as well as some nice specials.
I enjoyed my meatball roll.
Well priced and it was a nice mini break between busy shifts at work.
Recommended.
I had a great time at this place, staff is very friendly, made me a super nice sour whisky and share with me nice places for dinner.
I recommend anyone read this post to try their sour whisky with or without egg white.
I’ll visit again when I come back to Mel.
A quiet getaway from the hustle and bustle. Staff were really lovely and it has a comfy interior. We had the mushroom burger and cauliflower/saffron soup which didn't wow me, but it was really hearty and left us feeling rejuvenated.
Nice ambience, placed in a small lane near Flinders street on the first floor of the building.
It offers good food and drinks. Seating for around 15-18 people.
