Hard Heavy

A true Collingwood local, the Gem has remained true to its Americana aesthetic since opening for business in 2006.

With its wooden honkytonk interior, ranch-style furniture, and shrines to the memory of the late Elvis Presley, not only does it capture the warmth and friendly feel of a Southern American bar, it's married authentic Texas Barbecue with a range of delicious vegetarian dishes creating a truly unique Melbourne food experience.

The Grace Darling is an ornate 19th-century pub with a focus on locally produced beer and food, plus live indie bands.

With two seperate live music spaces and a warm and bustling front bar and eatery, this inner Northern staple is a great place for a casual pub lunch, group dinner or gig going for all kinds of music lovers.

Keeping the filth in Fitzroy for over fifteen years. The Old Bar is a beacon of dirt in the sparkly clean ether of the Melbourne bar and music scene.

Live music 7 nights a week and Saturday and Sunday afternoon shows.

Good poeple, good staff, good bands.
