The 37 best happy hours in Melbourne right now
One of Melbourne's most beloved institutions for wining and dining, Neighbourhood Wine, recently launched 'Patio Aperitivo'. Everyday, from 4pm until 6pm, all diners on the terrace can enjoy a free snack with each drink purchased. Think fresh pacific oysters from Tassie with a smoky soy vinaigrette; spelt tarts with raw tuna, kohlrabi, mascarpone and elderflower; Robbins Island wagyu with bone marrow and sourdough crackers; and honeydew melon and capocollo. For those after an aperitivo, the thoughtfully curated cocktail menu includes house favourites such as the Fitzroy Northside (thyme syrup, fresh mint, lemon & lime juice), Venetian Spritz (Rondo & Lemoss Prosecco with fresh orange and a green olive) and a Sullied Martini (Four Pillars Gin, dry vermouth, muddles green olive & Kampot pepper). Catch you on the terrace!
