Eau De Vie

I went here for my birthday. Very cool place! Very much embodies a speakeasy vibe. The staff were all very talented mixologists and dressed well in theme of the bar. I don't think I've ever seen so many bottle of spirits!

Had a great experience. However, customer service was a bit of a let down. Main head of service seemed like he was in a rush all night to get us out of there and it wasn't even that busy. Had to continually ask waiters for service. Overall enjoyable night but attention to detail lacked a bit. Would go back though.

Went here for an anniversary and we both absolutely loved it. The staff wished us a happy anniversary and even gave us a free strawberry and cream shot to celebrate with. Jamie our waitress was an absolute delight and catered to my dietary requirements flawlessly. I've been here a few times and I've never had a bad experience. The cocktails are amazing and the hidden door into the venue just adds to the magic of it all. I highly recommend! The staff also always give great recommendations for drinks if you're stuck trying to pick!

A friend took me here for some drinks - Great little hidden gem in Melbourne. Outside looking in doesn’t look like much at all but as soon as you get inside the cocktails and drinks are the best! All made with the best theatrical experience. Highly recommend

Not just a bar but a theatrical show. You’ll enjoy watching the bar tender make the drinks as much as you’ll enjoy drinking them. 10/10

Drinks are great but came in tonight with a booking, for a special occasion, and managed to get served one time over the course of an hour. Ended up leaving early because sitting around waiting for nothing wasn't exactly a good time. Not acceptable.

This place was fantastic from start to finish. Interesting, delicious (food and cocktails), a theatrical display. Friendly, knowledgable staff top off a 10/10 performance. You need to experience this. I suggest sitting at the table just in front of the bar to be a part of all the action! It's the Cirque du Soleil of cocktails!

The hostess told us we didn’t have time for another drink with 20 minutes left of our sitting and 14 vacant seats in the venue - there wasn’t even a queue. Usually a big fan but can’t support bad business.

If your lucky enough to find out about this place you will love it! It's a hidden bar down an alleyway for you to find! This is by far my favourite date night venue for myself and my partner. When you walk in it's dimmed lighting and your welcomed by the staff (usually dressed in suits) once your taken to your table they are so lovely and helpful at recommending the best drinks to suit your liking. Be prepared to taste the best cocktails you've ever had in your life! And oh did i say they also do cocktails that they light on fire? Mind blown, it is a must to go here!

Great place for amazing cocktails. Door is easy to miss but once inside it's done very well to enjoy a cocktail or one of many good whisky/eys. You don't just get a drink here you get a show of cocktail skills and well crafted flavors! The smokey rob roy was great to watch being served and tasted very good.

Fancy cocktail bar. They really put on a show when they make the cocktail. Tastes good too. The bartenders are friendly and professional. There is one big cocktail list plus wine and beer list. Yet the door is hard to find. They hind themselves well.

It may be a difficult place to find but once you find it, you need to check out this speakeasy. Staff are professional and fun. The bartenders know what they are doing. I absolutely love the cocktail menu and how it is designed. There is something for every one.

They also do whisky and cheese on Tuesdays for $40 which is reasonable.

I had the szechuan spiced churros with a miso chocolate sauce and it blew my mind.

Once you find this hidden gem, the brilliant bar tenders will take you on a wild cocktail roller coaster. It was a lot of fun trying new drinks and flavours. Be warned, it does get very busy due to the obvious popularity.

Crowded, cozy, intimate, relaxed, perfect for a dram or two. Great range of whiskeys.though I would have liked to see some Aussie whiskeys available by the glass!
Hard to spot the entrance at night in the rain, but worth the effort. Highly recommended.

Certainly one of the best Over the Top Fancy Brilliant Creative Cocktails in Melbourne. It is packed, so you better book in advance, the queues are too long to wait. Cocktail fan's ticket to Heaven, must visit

Great little hidden gem. Wide range of cocktails and an enormous collection of whisky & rum served by very knowledgeable staff.

Second visit, good and fast service, beverages were excellent - any issues I had were purely personal preference. Food was also brilliant, it’s the first time I’ve been excited by sourdough and the wagyu steak was beyond perfect.

Can't imagine anywhere having a larger selection of cocktails with such high-quality creativity.
Super cool inside as well, bartenders are all dressed beautifully. Lovely environment!
I bring all visitors to Melbourne here before anywhere else and everyone is always impressed!

We have had a great time here and the drinks and atmosphere are lovely. Though it can be hard to have a conversation at times, though this is to be expected on a busy Saturday night out. We had a short wait to be seated so no worries there!

If this secret bar isn’t the best bar in Mel, let me know, I will give you 1 dollar. Tips: booking ahead on weekend like a boss or let your girls wait outside in a cold night
