Cookie

You can’t be in Melbourne long and not know about Cookie. Thanks in part to its versatility, as well as its central location, this is one of the city’s most popular bars.

Cookie is the little black dress of bars. It’s a place we sometimes forget among all the glitzy new Places To Be Right Now, but every time we come back to this playful, manically busy joint, located a puffy stair climb halfway up Curtin House, we never know why we’ve been away – it’s an old faithful that never fails to deliver.
