Amazing place, staff are attentive and keep on smiling when busy!
These guys are badass. This is the kind of place you can get a great beer, cocktail or jagerbomb whilst listening to awesome tunes while the staff work their asses off. A St Kilda staple.
Good music and great bbq chicken wings! The whole set up is fun, good vibes and there's giant jenga!
Awesome staff and venue, vibes are always amazing at this place :)
The staff here kick ass. I just gave them $50 for 2 beers and walked off, it was busy as hell, but they tracked me down to give me the change! That is class
Absolutely marvelous. The homosexual manager by the name of Jordan was just delightful and bubbly and super helpful. Thanks Jordy call me xoxo ;)
Amazing energy and drinks thanks ;) and the staff are very friendly
Such a fabulous place to hang out and drink and dance!! Would definitely recommend this place for anyone travelling to Melbourne! :)
Amazing service and even better drinks. Will be coming back with a crowd!
Hadn't long arrived in St Kilda and had a great first night out here last Saturday! Staff were most excellent, as was the music later on. Loved the place!
Love this place! Great place for a drink and a boogie!
Have been there on 4 occasions. Fantastic venue.

Stumble across this place and decided to try the menu. Saw the chips which was a big nice serve and went for 2 different pizza.
Staff were very attentive and helpful and accommodated with all our needs .
The Tap Apple cider was crisp ($8.5)
Pizza serving was very large . Need a bit more spices on both.
On the first impression, the place was an interesting setup but the wings and pizza were superb! I tried all the wings flavors and my favorite was Chipotle!
Went with a group of friends. This is a great place to go to celebrate and eat yummy pizzas. Every one of us loved it there. Highly recommend espresso martini and game of Giant Genga. Thank you for the service.
Had the best time ever with a few friends. Played a bit of giant genger where the looser bought the round of drinks. Maybe should not of had too many games in the end (lol), but who cares we had the best night. Man how good are the pizzas. Staff were really friendly which made it that much more enjoyable. Definitely will go back. Highly recommend 29thapartment. Five stars from me :)
great ambience. loved the pizza (ordered the vegetarian). it was a bit dark in one of the booths, but the brought across some candles to brighten it up. will defs be back for a chilled night out
Was here for my sisters bday last night (Good Friday) and holy moly the service on jordon was unreal. I’m not sure why the place only had one man working behind the bar on a public holiday but jordon really handled himself well!
The business rly has got a star with this dudey
I love this place! Staffs are very friendly and good at service. Used to go for weekend drinking with friends. Loved fried chicken in sauce.
Awesome bar in Fitzroy Street. This bar definitely has the best interior, really awesome ideas like the bed in the middle of the venue! I came here with a few mates and we had the wings, they tasted great. I love the Jenga! We always play. I recommend coming here on a Weekend night, it's usually quite busy and really close to more bars down Acland and Fitzroy Street.
I was invited to the winter menu launch at 29th apartment last night which I unfortunately couldn’t make it but it made me remember I hadn’t posted my review from my visit just before going to Europe 7 weeks ago. A friend and I came for pizza and her being vegetarian we opted to share a buffala on a Saturday afternoon which was very tasty with rather a thin crispy base.
It’s quite an eclectic little spot, very St Kilda read quirky and it’s relaxed apartment style setting as the name suggests provides not only a novel atmosphere but also plenty of games should you wish to entertain yourself (we did not on this occasion but others certainly were!). A great spot to pop into for a drink if you are eating dinner along the street. It’s fun, unpretentious and a little bit different oh and I hear they now have mulled wine!
What a great place to stumble into (literally stumbled into after an eary cheeky drink sesh with my girls on a Sunday arvo)
The interior is quirky, sporting all the basics of... yep you guessed it.. an apartment! I thoroughly enjoyed making a lot of unneccessary noise playing jenga (because I always seem to pull out the worst beam!) And also napping on the sexy silk lined bed (yep.. theres a sexy bed). BUT the biggest highlight was finding a treat in the fish tank ... you'll just have to go to see it for yourself!
Great spots to chill with good friends.
Have I mentioned the $20 cocktail jugs? Proper cocktails! the bar staff know what theyre doing!
I suggest to check it out.
3 overall
4 on sunday arvo if you dont like crowds and just want to chill
29th apartment provides the best of both worlds; a comfy, quirky venue, with friendly staff who are knowledgeable on their product. Awesome cocktails, and food. Also can be a pumping nightclub, with a great vibe and brilliant DJs. Would highly recommend popping down to check it out. Wednesdays are a must, $1 pizzas and $5 basic drinks
Food is Delicious (Make sure to check out the new Pizzas!), Cocktails are my absolute favourite. Really good party vibe on Wednesday nights ($1 Pizzas are a must!!) & the weekend!
This place is AMAZING!! Was there on Wednesday night and the place was jumping. Drinks promos, someone live on the drums as well great djs!! Danced until the lights came up!! Will be back 👍
There's not that many drinking outlets I'd rate around these neck of the woods, but 29th Apartment's alright. It houses a pretty chilled ambience, with only the giant Jenga being the main periodic antagonist of the night.
Various furnishings contribute to the overarching theme, and smartly doubling as additional seating.
The milk crates are my favourite, so simple it's stupid.
So, grab a cocktail and take your eyes on a visual tour.
Great bar to chill out in. Like its name, the place is set up like an apartment inclusive of bed and bath and dated furniture. There is an old 50's TV drawn on the wall with projections of Audrey Hepburn movies. Board games hidden in the fridge if you feel like playing guess who or connect four and random thunder from giant stacker collapses the norm. Drinks and food are pretty average but this is one of those places you can spend hours chilling on your own or with friends.
A great little place for cheap eats, and very novel atmosphere. We ordered the BBQ chicken pizza and sweet potato chips with garlic aoli to share and it was more than enough! The pizza was tasty and the sweet potato chips were the biggest I've ever seen! Really good. It was nice and quiet going at 6pm. Would definitely go back again.
Cool place but im not gonna say the same thing for the guy at the bar who serves drinks. I wasnt sure what ill get and was asking my friend like what are you gonna get and he suddenly turned back to him and said she can decide now - what can i get you with a shitty face. That wasnt nice - his behavior towards me. Anyways we got some beers and played that massive jenga. It was so much fun - we had a really good time.
We did the unlimited wings coupon for $20 for 2 people and it was worth it. Wings were really saucey. Only had the one buffalo flavour but the wings were pretty crispy and most was nice inside. The other menu items were not bad either alot of American type stuff like burgers and cheese bites from what i saw. It's worth a peak if you've got nowhere else planned
awesome place, great vibe! service is excellent! we loved the all you can eat wings and the espresso martinis! will defo be back to play giant jenga and to see the new baby fish again. this place would be great for a big party or function
Really good place for quiet drinks with friends that eventually lead to louder drinks with more friends.
Games to play, amazing cocktails to drink and the staff are pretty friendly. I highly recommend this place for people new to St Kilda / Melbourne and want to see just an example of what's on offer. Really nice to be able to wander down to the beach later at night to relax after a night out here.
Very good place to eat and spend time with friends! Very nice home atmosphere. During cold months beautiful fireplaces with will make you warmth :) good food and friendly service :)
This was by far the most interesting place we came across on our recent trip to Aussie land. We decided to go to St Kilda for an evening out. We bar hopping, but nothing seemed interesting enough to stick with until we stumbled upon this place. Honestly I'm really surprised about the low Zomato rating, because I loved the place!
Being an architect, I was really impressed with the interiors and the theme of this place. The setting is just like an urban apartment and the elements they have used are sometimes not very subtle, but still very interesting.
Plus they had board games! The giant Jenga was an instant hit.
This would be a regular hang out spot for me if I were living around Melbourne!
On our second last night in Melbourne, being the weekend we were looking for some nice spots to hit along St. Kilda. We started bar hopping for a bit till we got here. This place was something very different than the rest. By the end of the night, it was also the most crowded place in the area.
A typical New York apartment setting, with couches, dining tables, and even a bathtub. It was something we hadn’t seen before, and the moment we walked past it, it gave off an amazing vibe which neither of the other places along St. Kilda managed to do for us. Once we got here, we forgot about the hopping and ended up spending the entire evening here. They have many ways to keep you engrossed. The pick of them all was the Giant Jenga, which turned out to be way too much fun to stop playing.
Having said all of that, we experienced a great setting with a good crowd and decently priced drinks! I would so love to come back to this place if I ever had a chance!
Liked the all-you-can-eat wings. The sauce was a little too much for us at the start so for the second plate we asked if we could have bbq sauce and they said although in the voucher we could only have buffalo wings they can make the bbq sauce wings for us. That was quite nice of them and having celery sticks to go along with all that meat was good too.

Cool and quirky! What an exciting and unique café on Fitzroy St! Great place to take out of towners! This is a large spacious café with several beguiling sections. You can sit by the entrance and play board games while enjoying gourmet pizza and fine coffee, sit around the old barbeque that doubles for a table or even go out to the back section to enter a world of fun and all things quirky.

One of Melbourne's best cheap eats.. Been awhile since I have been here and like the last time I must say you truly doing an outstanding job on food,price and service.
The waitress was very pleasant how truly gave exceptional customer service.
I used a LivingSocial voucher for the all you can eat buffalo wings with the blu cheese sauce and I must say are truly some of the best wings I have ever had.
It also came with 2 drinks for me and my friend which made it an good deal into a great deal.
Kudos to you all and look forward to coming back.
Sick concept for a bar & great crew. I had my 30th there last weekend and I had such an awesome time. I was given a free birthday shot cake and they reserved me a giant jenga game. The bar is wicked too. So different to many other bars. It felt like I was having an epic house party at my apartment. My friends and I partied pretty hard and the crew there were nothing but accommodating. The staff there made my night awesome. Cheers to a great bar and a fantastic crew.
Yumdiddlyumptious. We had a voucher for wings. What can we say YUM, YUM, YUM.
Can't go wrong with 29th Apartment.
Really friendly staff and great wings!. Went here on a scoopon and we were treated like regular customers! really friendly staff and great wings. we only had the buffalo wings, but the cheese sauce was really amazing and the serving portion was huge. we couldn't even get through one bucket with two people! come here on an empty stomach and you will come out fully satisfied with a great meal.
Good. All you can eat buffalo wings and a beer. Relaxed atmosphere + massive jenga pieces + great service. Will be returning
Fantastic atmosphere, great food that was generous in size without being over priced. Staff were very helpful and friendly!
Great atmosphere with awesome chicken wings. Great price on their products. Great place to chill out with friends
A Must Visit. This place serves the best buffalo wings ever! (super saucy and huge serving). The staff are friendly and fun and always around to top up your drink.
The venue itself is creatively fitted out... they even have a Giant Jenga (like normal Jenga but the blocks are the size of bricks).
29TH CREW ARE AWESOME!!!!!. Thank you to the 29th crew, I had the best birthday thus far.....the new crew they have down there are very fun, they made us feel like it was literally our little home away from home, and once your a regular they treat you like gold (and a drink or two on the sly ;) thanks guys). Ive been to 29th a few times a while ago and now it will be my new local hangout once more, they have stepped it up again and have the raddest cocktails and banging food deals, well done guys you have recaptured what made the place iconic, and hands down the best place to experience true local st kilda nostalgic life....
Food portion was huge. Whilst I thought $18 for a chicken burger was a bit dear, it was tasty and had pretty much a whole chicken breast in it, along with mushrooms, veggies, sauce and heaps of spices. Very tasty. The lounges inside do smell a bit funky, however!
Good service, friendly, cool decorations. Bought an offer via groupon for buffalo wings & house wines, drinks etc. food was an hour late due to unexpected amount of orders. But they compensate us with fries & garlic bread.
Awesome chicken wings for $12 a kg.
Good service, friendly, quick. I thought the wings were great. We went on a Saturday night and it was busy but not really packed. Pretty relaxed casual vibe and decor.
Great place, ordered a groupon on line for all you could eat buffalo wings and a drink each for two people great atmosphere, VERY FRIENDLY STAFF, awesome all round AAA+++
Music is great. Great music, great crowd and love the decor! It was a crazy night but totally love it!
Just Drinks. Only came here for drinks and they were great. Didn't eat. Would come back
Go here to drink but don't eat! Useless tasteless bar food
Fun fun. Great after work drinks spot! all the staff kill it! love coming here to wind down! then kicking on some where in fitzroy st!
Quite good!. I went here using a group buy deal with a couple of friends and was quite impressed. The service staff were very friendly and helpful. We tried a couple of items off the menu in addition to the Buffalo Wings/Peroni Beer provided by the scoopon (Fries, Calamari & Kirin Beers) and they were nice, I would like to go back in the future to try some of the more substantial items on the menu, such as the stuffed cheese burger!
Great place. Tryed 29th apartment for drinks and pizza. Food was great as to was the drinks selection. Read the previous reviews about the service but couldn't fault it at all. Service was friendly and fun.
Great concept on the decor...food yum!. Decor was fabulous. Yummy flavours on the ribs and I was loving those potato skins with it's honey mustard sauce. Chef was a darl...can't say the same about the front staff.
Nice fun place to have a drink. Friendly service. Had a pizza which was nice but nothing special. Would go back for a few drinks.
Great atmosphere. After reading some of the reviews I wasn't sure what to expect about the service but I was plesantly surprised. The staff were friendly and knew their stuff when it came to choosing a wine. We had a satay chicken and a prosciutto pizza and they went down a treat. The decor was interesting and the foos ball table and giant jenga provided a heap of laughs. Overall great atmosphere and food - would definately recommend this place.
Interesting place for nibbly and drinks. This joint looks like any modern bar / lounge from the outside but take a step towards the more concealed back end of the bar and you will find that it has been decorated like a funky bacehlor's apartment fully furnished with fish tank, bed and bath! Mr P thought they were trying a bit too hard with the decor back here but I didn't mind the change of scenery.
We ordered the smoked chicken and tiger prawn pizza. I liked the garlicy sauce on the prawn pizza and mopped that up real quick. The smoked chicken pizza was okay but the sauce drowned out any of the original flavours that were listed on the menu. There was also hardly any chicken to be seen. Would have to say that given the portion sizes, these are more suitable as a nibbly with drinks rather than for dinner.
Service at the bar was friendly and efficient.
My kinda apartment. I hadn't been to 29th Apartment until I moved into the area, but it fast became a firm local favourite. It's not easy to compete with St Kilda greats like The Espy or The Prince of Whales, but 29th certainly has a lot going for it.
You'll find the usual liquid paraphernalia on offer, but 29th is all about the look. It's small, but the entire inside is fashioned as an actual apartment - with couches, board games (yes, you can play them), a wall TV, fish tank, tables made out of barbecues and ironing boards, and even a bed at the far end of the joint. It has a great atmosphere that literally makes you feel like you're just hanging at a friends house.
The staff are great and always up for a chat (much like your mate might be if you were over for a visit ;))
With their kitchen open till 3am, and specials every night of the week (get down on Wednesdays for backpackers night - cheap drinks, cheap pizza) what more could you ask for? If you're under 35 years of age, and don't mind the St Kilda locals, you'll love this place.
What a sick venue! DJs are absolute killer no matter who is playing! Wednesday and Sunday nights are the best here, with backpackers and hospo crew showing the crowd how to party!
Giant jenga is a great activity, especially to start the night with a group. The giant connect 4 is a great option for you and a friend to play, or even playing teams or setting a comp style game makes the night more fun to be had!
Drinks are priced so well that your bank will not be mad at your spending the day after
Massive spirit range, fizzers on tap and a great selection of bottled beers to keep you going
The private room is a great option for your event planning also, with the option to connect your own tracks to a Bluetooth speaker getting you and your mates in the right vibe you need!
If you head down on a Wednesday they have $1 hotdogs and $5 drinks til midnight; an absolute bargain you will not wanna miss!
Whether you’re wanting chill vibes in the front room or after some banging tunes to dance the night away, this place is surely not one you’ll wanna skip!
A place where everyone ends up to have a fantastic night, don't worry about the phallic fish tank, but do try to insta a bath. Open until 3am, 29th apartment is a perpetual house party - games, music, cigarettes and drinks by the picket fence, or whimsical whispers in the library. A must visit.
Bartender with tattoos and cool shaved head with patterns was great. Super welcoming and sick decor as well. A great post-hospo place to go for a drink. Thanks guys :)
We had so much fun here playing gigantic Jenga and Connect 4 while sipping Sangria. The price was very convenient ($20 for a jar). The place is so peculiar! I liked the menu; it was so original (a newspaper)!!! Friendly stuff and cozy atmosphere!!!
Conveniently located and interesting place! Loved all the little design details that made my visit a memorable experience. The seat swings with the giant Jenga and multi-player gaming console area at the front was our favourite spot to hang out with friends. Excellent selection of drinks and friendly staff. Highly recommend!
An awesome vibe throughout the night
All staff are professional, even when problem customers come their way
Great priced drinks, service is quick and responsive, awesome amount of respect for these people
Great cocktails from a new bartender from Brisbane. Had some great skills and made for an enjoyable night.
