The Croft Institute - CLOSED

Self described as 'the first of Melbourne's laneway bars', The Croft appeals to your inner science-nerd sensibilities. The shelves are stocked with an array of delectable spirits and plenty of oddly-shaped beakers, syringes and test tubes, making the prospect of devouring one of their custom designed cocktails an intriguing one. If the stark black and white tiles and dim lighting is giving you the willies, head upstairs to the gymnasium bar, complete with inbuilt bleachers and turf bar.
