Welcome to the attic at black pearl the not so secret bar above a bar.
Black pearl has long been the driving force behind melbourne s cocktail scene and has played host to some of the country s most prolific bartenders and still does.
As we all know the hospitality scene today is a very different beast.
A planned visit to the black pearl on brunswick street and a curious climb up the back stairs led us into the attic the more subdued sister to its popular sibling downstairs.
Often you start the night in one place and then either struggle to find somewhere to go next or seriously can t be bothered and end up just hanging.
You will need to ring the doorbell and await to be let in.
Fantastic drinks in the attic.
It s always a bonus when you get two for one and this is no exception.
A fitzroy institution for 18 years fostering some of the most amazing talent to come from the australian bartending scene.
The attic feels like a sneaky secret hiding upstairs for a cocktail in a more intimate setting.
Maybe you ve even had a drink downstairs at the black pearl and missed it completely.
The black pearl and more recently the attic upstairs serve up some top notch cocktails with a laid back atmosphere.
