Everywhere you look in Melbourne, there’s a new bar or restaurant run by some young culinary prodigy. And don’t get us wrong, it’s great and all, but it’s also a lot to keep up with. So we decided to make it a little easier by bringing all the coolness to one place: Club MUNCHIES.
This year, we’ve teamed up with the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival to create a rolling series of restaurant pop ups in an inner city dive bar (of course). We’ve invited our favourite chefs along for the festival-long event, where they’ll take turns making a three course menu and cocktail pairing that explore food themes and tastes they love.

Club MUNCHIES will feature appearances by local heroes Victor Liong, Kimchi Pete, Daniel Dobra, Emma Hanley, Shannon Martinez, and Morgan McGlone. Together they’ll explore everything from vegan delights, to Sichuan challenges, Croatian classics, and an Australian take on Japanese staples. Hell, we’re even finishing things up with a karaoke and fried chicken party. Literally what else could you possibly want on a Friday?
Alongside the nightly sittings, the space will also serve as a specially curated bar and snack spot over the week. Trust us, you won’t want to go home.
