▢ Book NowAbout Curious
An essential stop on the Melbourne laneway circuit. Down a Flinders Lane stairwell—past a seriously striking entrance—awaits a subterranean boîte buzzing with weekly music and liquid alchemy. CBD night owls consistently point to the wildly inventive cocktails and moody, electric atmosphere as the main draw. It’s a cocktail experience built around creative sharing plates, kingfish bites, and breathtaking Janice Wong desserts—pure haute sugar craft. Be warned: the kitchen's pacing can test your patience, and last call creeps up fast. Still, for a flawless date night or a masterful post-dinner digestif, the brilliant pours and underground aesthetic make this basement lounge entirely worth the descent.
- Subterranean Aesthetic: A striking, dimly-lit underground design that sets a moody, electric atmosphere perfect for date nights.
- Inventive Mixology: Creative, expertly crafted cocktails that serve as the undeniable main draw for late-night patrons.
- Haute Desserts & Bites: Features a menu of sharing plates, kingfish, and beautiful custom desserts by renowned chef Janice Wong.
