Manchuria

Gorgeous bar with asian-inspired decor. I don’t drink cocktails (unless you count Tito’s dirty martini as one 😂) but they have a nice list. No Tito’s but they have ketel one so not a problem. Bartenders are super friendly, unlike the ones you tend to run into in speakeasies in New York. 🤦🏻‍♀🤦🏻‍♀ but on average everyone is nicer in Melbourne than in the US 🤷🏻‍♀ anyway, highly recommend this place and go early to avoid it being crowded

Great Atmosphere of what is a hidden gem. Was recommended this place by a friend and it did not disappoint. Its up a completely blacked out staircase however once you get in the atmosphere is great and so is the drink selection. A great place to book or try to walk in as its not very obvious from the street.

As a part of my Sperm Donation Australia tour of Melbourne, 2nd speak easy bar of the night came here and was absolutely awesome acoustic artist that matches the vibe of the venue perfectly and had a great cocktail to go with it.

Hidden bar? Say no more, but you will have to find it first. Once you do, it's like where have this been all my life. One of the more underrated bars in Melbourne and the owner is chilled, The vibes alone in this place sets you up for a great night out of drinking or simply just a catchup with your friends

Both Matt’s have us great service, thanks for having us guys it was great experience here.

The prime location to start or end your night in Melbourne. Tucked away in Melbourne's South East Asian district, this bar combines an intimate atmosphere with expert level cocktails.

Definitely not a place to be missed. Makes every city experience worth it!

Staff are lovely and the venue is always neat and tidy. Great place to consider hosting a private function too!

My favorite ‘secret’ cocktail bar in Melbourne. Always such a nice vibe, great service, beautiful decide and delicious cocktails. Order the zombie and you’ll become one!

What a place! I had one of the best cocktails I’ve ever had - Tropical Heat. This place is one of Melbourne's best kept, hidden secrets. The music was on point. The vibe is relaxed and cosey. Can’t recommend highly enough. Bar staff are professional mixologists.

Fantastic, tucked-away cocktail bar. Amazing vibes with a great range of drinks that were all delicious. Came early when it was quiet and then it got pumping when it's busy; great vibe. The service from the bartenders was top notch. Will definitely be back.

Manch is my favourite bar.
Love me some Manch

Broad selection of spirits, passionate and mega friendly staff. Cocktails are always top notch, you’ll get what you pay for. Try coming in slightly early on weekdays to have the best experience. Arguably the best bar in Melbourne.

Great hidden spot, awesome atmosphere along with live music, friendly staff and patrons, topped off with proper bartenders that pay attention to their craft.

This place always makes me feel like home. Thanks again!

The most aesthetic bar and best kept secret in Melbourne. I ordered the lemon drop cocktail and it was delightful. The bartender was super friendly and offered up other great suggestions of other drinks to try upon learning how much I loved the lemon drop. Definitely will be back again! Loved it!!!

Good vibes and good music. Great friendly atmosphere and plenty of live music on a Thursday. A great crowd on all other days.

Atmosphere was amazing and bar staff very friendly. The cocktails were delicious!

reluctant to leave a review because this is my favourite "hidden gem" of Melbourne. chic atmosphere, great service and of course amazing cocktails. and I'm obsessed with the stunning wallpaper by the bathroom (made of gold if the staff are to be believed). worth the effort of locating the entrance (hint it's just up the first set of stairs).

Happy hour until 8pm on weeknights. Friendly service. Their cocktail tastes great and only $11. I think the beer/wine is only $6. Great atmosphere and drinks comes out fast. Not too crowded. They purposely make the place hard to find. No signage at front door.

When I say impeccable service I mean impeccable!

Thank you so much to the staff and a special thank you to Deezy and Stefany for saving our night and making my sisters birthday 100 times better! We honestly couldn’t have ended the night on a better note!

The Cocktails are amazinggg! Lemon drop is definitely my favourite 💛

What a place. Like, what a place! Thought i was gonna get murdered getting there but boy did Manchuria not disappoint. Got a small booth and had great cocktails. The amstophere was phenomenal and I cannot wait to come back here

Excellent little wine bar tucked away in China town. Gets busy on Friday so if highly recommend going on a week day of you can. The vibes great and live music is always a treat of its playing.
