Melbourne Is Getting a Dedicated Piano Bar
Enjoy a tipple and a tune.
There'll be a fresh tune flowing through the Melbourne CBD, as Murmur on Warburton Lane gets set to relaunch as the city's first dedicated piano bar.
Set to start tickling the ivories on the final day of November, Murmur Piano Bar takes its cues from venues in Chicago, New Orleans and New York, and will play host to a rotating roster of local musicians beginning with acclaimed entertainer Matt Ganim.
"Melbourne's bar scene has rapidly evolved and a regular bar just doesn't cut it anymore," said venue manager Charlie Haggarty in a statement. "People need a bigger reason to venture out, get off the couch and step away from the Netflix series they're binging on."
"Murmur Piano Bar gives people a reason to leave the house again"
On the beverage front, Murmur Piano Bar will offer a mix cocktails with a focus on whiskey and gin. The list will feature predominately Australian drops, with a few Spanish numbers thrown in.
The Spanish influence can also be seen in the food offerings, with tapas available courtesy of Portello Rosso downstairs. Think fresh charcuterie, ham hock croquettes and sweet, sweet churros.
Find Murmur Piano Bar upstairs at 17 Warburton Lane, Melbourne from November 30. For more information visit www.murmur.com.au.
