Champagne, martinis and old-world glamour in the heart of Melbourne.

Nick and Nora’s: Decadence Done Right

Nick and Nora’s is a love letter to the roaring thirties, where champagne towers, oysters and silk-draped interiors set the tone for nights that feel cinematic. From the moment you step through the doors, the mood shifts — dim lighting, jazz humming softly, and bartenders dressed like they belong on a movie set. It’s a cocktail bar with grandeur, yet none of the arrogance.

The venue sprawls across multiple rooms, each with its own personality — think private booths, marble bars and plush lounges designed for lingering.

The Drinks: Luxury in Liquid Form

The cocktail list is extensive but curated, inspired by the golden age of speakeasies and art deco indulgence. Martinis come ice-cold and precise, while champagne is poured with theatrical flair. Signature drinks like the Lady Gatsby or The Manhattan Affair balance bold spirits with delicate details — a nod to the timeless glamour of their namesakes. The bar team’s technical skill and flair for presentation make every pour a small performance.

Pair your drink with caviar, oysters or charcuterie, and the experience feels like stepping into another era.

The Vibe: Sophisticated, Seductive and Always Polished

Nick and Nora’s attracts a mix of sharp suits, date-night couples and cocktail purists who appreciate atmosphere as much as flavour. Service is smooth, the soundtrack seductive, and the mood consistently elevated. Whether you’re starting your night with a martini or ending it with champagne, this is the place to do it in style.

It’s not just a bar — it’s a statement. A reminder that indulgence, when done well, never goes out of fashion.
