Jane Doe Bar reviews
39Never coming to this place again. Guy was so rude to me. Wouldn’t even serve me a drink. It was my grandma’s birthday. He called her on ledge rent and then punched her in the face. Definitely going to revolve the next time they were so inclusive to us.
Relaxing bar, great for an afternoon beverage, a pre or post dinner drink and people watching.
The overall atmosphere of the place is OK. Nevertheless I've had a few unpleasant experiences here. For example, one time I took a friend there who doesn't drink alcoholic beverages, and they basically just refused to serve him unless he'd order something alcoholic. I said I'd pay the full cocktail price for a mocktail and they just outright refused. It was all very strange. For another example, I tried to drop in for a drink earlier tonight and the service was very bad. It's kind of hard to explain the situation, but basically I began to ask if the bar was still open, and then corrected myself mid-sentence (since it clearly was), and then got a smart-arse reply from a member of the staff. The member of staff then proceeded to spend the next few minutes boasting to his friend about how he didn't get the position because of his social skills. The other staff member just laughed along with the tirade. After a few minutes of waiting for service and not getting any, I left shaking my head. Long story short, I think the place would be improved by better customer service. I wouldn't recommend the place as it currently stands.
Great place to sit and relax with a nice cold non alcoholic beer. They have a great selection of cocktails, beers and wine as well as a generous happy hour great people watching place too! Thanks team for always making me feel welcome
BOOOOO! They gave my friends more wine than me.not fair.very upset.wont be coming back here, screw this place. (for reference mines the middle wine)
Beautiful spot for a nice cozy drink. Service was exceptional and Shannon was so caring and helpful. Will definitely re-visit
Best chilled bar on Chapel. Great cocktails service and style all round bartenders are some of the best in the southern hemisphere run by Shan and Tracy and bartenders Adam and Taruka and Katy always taking care of me. Highly recommended.
Absolutely love this Bar, I’ve been coming here for years and it’s like a home away from home, the team are incredible and it’s clear to see they are lead by an fantastic Venue Manager (Tracey) who cares about her team. Incredible warm and welcoming atmosphere and a fantastic spot to sit, catch up with friends and enjoy some drinks. Highly recommend this bar to any locals like myself or anyone who takes a walk down chapel!
Came here at ten pm with a friend and we both ordered drinks from the bar and then went and sat out the front. After about ten minutes a manhattan and house beer which I had to ask for repeatedly despite the fact that the music wasn't that loud (which is a thing to note- cool quiet place) we were served and charged on a wireless EFTPOS system a total of $40. For two drinks. I asked for a breakdown of the bill and was told that the cocktails are expensive and timely. It wasn't happy hour at all. Anyway the vibe here is absoultuley on cue. Like somewhere that you'd expect to find in Fitzroy such as the Night Cat. Curbside-collection style couches fill the booths lit by plush red lighting. There is also an outdoorish area that takes up the entrance to the Chapel Street Bazaar at night. Overall if this is a leg of a pub crawl before the final destination of Revvs which is right next door then I strongly suggest getting here for the happy hour and drink with pleasure in a nice vibey bar.
Peace
Katy is awesome, made us excellent cocktails! Great customer service, extremely welcoming and friendly!
Great vibe, great drinks, but Tracey was so rude my friends asked me not to bring them there again. Real shame.
Had an excellent experience here last night. The bartender was incredibly friends and very knowledgeable, and she was able to steer my mate and I in the direction of some excellent drinks that she expertly made. Definitely worth popping in for a visit if you're in the area.
Great bar, Highly recommend getting a cocktail from Lucy, Great knowledge or alcohol and tasty recommendations
Love it! Perfect Friday night drinks. Cosy for winter. Bar staff are amazing and always up for a chat. The best!
Absolute rip off of a place 3 below average drinks cost me $84 would not recommend at all to go here by far the service or any service should be able to get with charging that much
I understand that hospitality is struggling at the moment, but we were just charged extortionate prices for absolutely mediocre and watered down cocktails. The bartender hardly tried. Disappointed considering this place was a Chapel Street gem back in the day.
Premade cocktails, poorly made and served out of a keg. You're not getting a real cocktail here, so expect a very standard flavour that you would get in any other bar. I asked the bartender to make me a fresh drink and she became rude, told me I'm intoxicated and asked me to leave:)
I have a thing for vevelvet cosy couchs. Comfortable, people watching, perfect spot. Not to loud although we here during the day over a night time setting, passed by and stop for a cocktails or two
I had such a great night here last night. The vibe was great and the staff were great. Thank you for making my weekend post lockdown a GREAT one
Rocked up for the happy hour, was told there was no happy hour here. When I stated it was advertised in the website, was told we cannot control what goes on the website…
