AI Summary

St Kilda's dream oyster bar. rotating varieties, signature pâté and the Walrus martini.

Intimate, cosy corner bar with a record player spinning vinyl throughout service, warm lighting and the feeling of being in your coolest friend's well-curated apartment. Upbeat and convivial but not shouty. the kind of place where you settle in for the evening without meaning to.

Four rotating oyster varieties with knowledgeable staff-led tastings; weekly-rotating cocktail and wine menu including rare by-the-glass options such as German rieslings and Burgundy aligoté; Supperclub late-night happy hour menu on weekends; record player and vinyl curated by staff; dog-friendly pavement seating on Inkerman St.

European-influenced wine bar ethos with rare by-the-glass options. Burgundy aligoté, German rieslings, white Riojas. Oyster culture is Australian but presented with a continental sensibility that feels singular in the area.

High-end pricing relative to the surroundings. expect a splurge on oysters, wine and cocktails. Reviewers consistently say the quality of produce, wine knowledge and service justifies the spend, especially for a special occasion.
