Bar HumBug

Overall 10 - Food 10, Ambience 10, Value 10, Service 10

Hi,

Both my wife and I visit the 'Bug' on a regular basis. On every visit the service and quality of food impresses time after time.

I would without any doubt recommend the 'Bar Humbug' for an evening out with either friends or family for a meal, or alternatively, a nice place to visit by yourself and sit and enjoy a fine wine or beer.

I know it sounds too good to be true, however, this unstated bar that has quite simply got it right.

Kind regards,

A fantastic night was enjoyed by our small group.

Service was friendly and prompt.

Even though the place was clearly packed to the rafters, the young waitresses managed to secure us a table and have our meals out all at a respectable time from placing orders.

Food was delicious and well priced.

Drinks and wine were superb and well matched by the staff. (Clonakilla Shiraz Viogner) Great to see in a Melbourne bar.

The young barman also put on a great show for the night, looking after our table after the kitchen service. The cocktails to finish the night were delicious.

Overall a great night out and a big tick on our map for when ever our next visit to Melbourne occurs.

5 star.

Food was excellent, was a great recommendation from the hotel next door.

Will drop in again on my next visit to Melbourne.

Perfect after-work retreat for the casual tasty pint in a well chilled atmosphere. Location ideal, particularly when you've missed your train at Southern Cross like me! Staff are very friendly and service is always prompt. Hearty food always goes down a treat and their wine/cocktail list is suitable for all tastes and budgets. Keep up the good work!   (mark - May, 2009)

Very intimate, cozy little bar, great place to dine with friends or just to chill out (great music). Love the menu (Hamburger is totally recommended for a big satisfying feed – one of the best burgers), seafood linguine is also sensational. Staffs are friendly, and provide great table service. Great little bar for cocktails enthusiasts as well – look for Tristan.   (Hazel Lime - April, 2009)

My office's local place for lunch. A little hard to get in for lunch, so my advice to book early. Meals always delicious. Usually wrap up a lunch within the hour. I find that impressive after catching a glimpse of the tiny kitchen. Waitresses are great. Love the name of the place.   (Ben - See my reviews (2) - April, 2009)

I've been a local for a year now, and I need to share this little gem of a bar. Great food, massive burger! My fav beer Little Creatures on tap. Staff extremely friendly, they even know my name and on most occasions have a pint on the bar as I enter. Pulls a decent crowd. One of those bars that you'd go back for years and then pass it on to your kids. Well done.   (Ben - See my reviews (2) - April, 2009)

This is a great little bar. Very private. Hard to describe atmosphere, urban, bohemian, warm, inviting. Food was great, music can be a little chilled but also has an excellent wine list. Worth going with a few close friends.   (Brodie - April, 2009)
