AI Summary

Grungy Fitzroy live-music dive bar with $10 cash pints and nightly gigs on Johnston St.

A proudly grungy, old-school dive bar with band posters on red walls, sticky floors, and a packed smokers' courtyard. character over polish.

A nightly live-music line-up spanning rock, alternative and DJ sets, plus regular karaoke and themed nights like 'Morbid Mondays.'

An old-school, unrenovated dive bar identity that long-time patrons explicitly value and don't want changed.

Cash pints around $10 and a modest ~$15 cover for live bands make it one of the cheapest nights out in inner-north Melbourne.
