Antique Bar

Absolutely fabulous cocktails and friendly staff that will even allow you to itemise the bill. Great quirky little space with plenty of atmosphere. Highly recommend

Staff couldn't be any nicer, and the pints of Guinness are creamy. Irish folk band was top notch also, will be back 👌

Best cocktails I've had in Melbourne, fabulous new owners with a genuine passion for good service and drinks! Highly recommend checking it out. Best to book online, as they are busy.

Every time we come here the service and attention is always excellent. Staff are super friendly and helpful and the drinks are made to perfection. Definitely must visit if you’re after a cozy warm vibe, tasty cocktails and amazing atmosphere. They go above and beyond.

Best bar in Melbourne👏🏻👏🏻 love the trad sess on a Sunday, the staff are so friendly and go out of the way to make sure you are having a good time! Their drinks are fab, love the cocktails and their mulled wine.

Absolutely loved this place. We were extremely surprised to find a genuine happy hour cocktail/wine bar. The staff are fabulous. Extremely friendly and helpful. Highly recommend dropping by for a drink (or 3😉)
Look forward to visiting again next time that we are in Melbourne.

Cannot fault this wonderful bar! I had a birthday party over the weekend here and cannot recommend enough! Besides Boutaina and Lyle being exceptional before the night, together with the staff on the night made it the most relaxed, seamless fun evening. The drinks are great, the Guinness great and the atmosphere just the best! Definitely recommend!

Service is swift and Lyle is a true asset to this establishment; always going over and above to ensure we’re catered for. Genuinely the best Guinness I’ve ever had let alone Melbourne. Stone and wood $10.50 pint in their happy hour that ends at 7. The interior decor is very boujee and would be a great date spot. The inside is low-lit so feels a little dark sometimes but once the sun sets the lighting brings this place alive. Quaint outdoor seating on the roadside and a small beer garden at the rear. Come and get yourselves a pint of the black stuff here asap!

“Antique Bar in Elsternwick is an absolute gem that I stumbled upon last week, and it’s safe to say it will be my regular spot from now on. Lyle and the team have created something special here—a perfect blend of knowledgeable staff, excellent service, and a welcoming atmosphere. Whether you’re looking for a friendly chat or a night out, this is the place to be. Shoutout to Mike, Anastasia, and Daragh for always going above and beyond to make sure everyone leaves with a smile. Do yourself a favor and pay them a visit—you won’t be disappointed. Thanks for the great experiences, Antique Bar!”

We have had long on/off relationship with this bar. Always loved the place but have had good and bad interactions with former staff and management. I have to say I CANNOT over-emphasise how fantastic a night we just had. An impromptu return drink for happy hour (4 -7) with some insanely good affordable beer and cocktails turned into us staying for trivia night and my buying a Guinness (because it genuinely was the best Guinness I’ve seen poured anywhere and I HAD to have one!) … I should just shut up! Running a small business ourselves we are all about service and every single staff person had genuine care and attention to detail customer service in spades! Actually I just kind of want to say thank you … because this place meant a lot to us when we started our business (when we started in our bootstraps) this is where we came to decompress and I am so happy to have re-found it again. Looking forward to making this place a part of my weekly watering holes once again! 🙏🏼❤

It is really cosy and lovely bar with friendly atmosphere. It is designed with antique furnitures and rustic theme. I would recommend this place to hang out with friends and family and have a great time here. We enjoyed the wine, cocktails and dips.

Great atmosphere. “Interesting” waiter (they call him Tim), a cosy corner booked for 6 of us after a filling meal up the road at the Umbrella Lounge. Great cocktail selection. The standouts had to be the cheesecake, and the Gingerbread. The place was buzzing late into the evening. Handy access from the city via tram, and back home by train.

Spotted the bustling outdoor area while passing by, so popped in to see what all the fuss was about. It did not disappoint. Delicious cocktails, great Guinness on tap and a fantastic atmosphere made by the background music. Staff could not have been more welcoming. Definitely visit if you’re in the area.

Cracking pub! One might say the best Guinness in Melbourne. It certainly has the right to make that claim. Beautiful pint. Had to have 2. The atmosphere there is awesome. Got that real pub feel inside, especially on a Sunday with the trad session. All the staff we interacted with were lovely and very accommodating. Mollie in particular was super friendly and made us feel at home. Great job guys

This place is a hidden gem in Elsternwick🙏🏼
Good music, great drinks and the most obliging and friendly staff!
So happy to have found this spot, and only a just down from the train station.
Hello new Local🍺🍺

Absolutely beautiful venue and cocktails for only 12$ during happy hour! Beautiful atmosphere and excited to see what the new owners will be doing with the food menu!

Wow, what a hidden gem of a bar!
This place takes up the Whole length of the building and a private area upstairs. Fantastic Happy Hour specials. Will be visiting this place as often as I can on this side of town.

We had an amazing time at Antique Bar. It is has amazing character and a chilled back atmosphere with the most beautiful cocktails I have ever tasted. Well worth a visit and only a short train ride from the CBD

If you want a cosy, quaint and intimate place for a drink in Elsternwick, this is the place.
Staff look very dapper and eager to assist you with a cocktail or drink. Can recommend the baked cheese and charcuterie board too.
Cheers

My favourite bar in Melbourne, so lucky to have such attentive and knowledgeable staff
