Nobody's Baby

South Yarra's moody neighbourhood bar: creative cocktails, Basque tapas, and vinyl beats.

Dark-toned and effortlessly cool. old timber detailing, dim lighting, and a curated selection of vinyl records playing on rotation. The main bar flows into a courtyard garden, offering versatility from an intimate date drink to a group celebration. Sophisticated but deliberately unpretentious; feels like a great friend's lounge room rather than a designed concept bar.

Vinyl record soundtrack curated by staff. Basque-inspired kitchen residency (Basque Txoko by Chef Aitor) featuring a $90 per head set share menu. Bar fronted by host Tim who is frequently singled out for personalised service. Large courtyard accommodating groups of 15+ without minimum-spend packages. Original cocktail list with signatures like the Parmesan rind martini and tahini-based cocktail.

The Basque Txoko kitchen residency features a chef trained at Mugaritz (Basque Country, 2 Michelin stars) and The Fat Duck. Reviewers with Basque travel experience rate the cuisine as genuinely representative.

Cocktails at $26 each and a $90 per head set menu represent premium inner-Melbourne bar pricing. Most regulars find it excellent value for the quality. the set menu in particular draws consistent praise for portion size and execution. A minority find the à la carte steak overpriced relative to size.
