A Hidden Gem in a Former Dry Zone

Camberwell remained a dry zone until 2015, with liquor licenses only granted through a public vote — leaving the area virtually bar-less for almost 100 years. But long before the restrictions were lifted, Bar None had already carved out its niche. Opened in 2004, this hidden gem has been a quiet sanctuary for cocktail lovers ever since.

Lounge-Style Comfort and Service

Its living room-style interior — with deep couches, low tables and a warm, welcoming atmosphere — feels more like a friend’s lounge than a typical bar. The focus here is firmly on exceptional table service and a meticulously curated cocktail list.

A Cocktail Haven

Behind the bar, more than 300 spirits await, and the team is known for their knowledge and creativity. Whether you stick to the menu or go off-script, you’re in expert hands.

Snacks with Style

The food menu is short but satisfying: dips, charcuterie platters, bowls of M&Ms and toasted sandwiches.

More Upstairs at East of Everything

If you’re after something heartier, head upstairs to East of Everything — a bar and eatery created by owners Michael and Genevieve Cotter after a devastating fire. Like their Fitzroy venue Po’ Boy Quarter, it leans into American flavours and a strong craft beer focus.
