The Fitzroy Beach Garden
Gertrude Street's Fitzroy Beer Garden has transformed into a beachy oasis with summery cocktails, sand and daily specials.
Overview
One of the northside's best-loved beer gardens has been transformed into a beach-inspired oasis primed for the scorching temperatures hitting Melbourne left, right and centre.
The Fitzroy Beer Garden's sprawling courtyard now boasts an extra ten cubic metres of sand, vibrant tiki styling and a pop-up beach bar, to help you keep your keep cool right through until the end of summer.
To match its snazzy new looks and Mikey XXI wall art, the bar's also whipping up a fresh range of summery cocktail creations. Snag a spot on one of the daybeds or kick back in a beach booth and enjoy sips like the Summerside — a blend of gin, strawberry puree, lemon and balsamic — or the share-friendly Princess Peach jug, featuring vodka, Chambord, peach schnapps, apple juice and mint.
Of course, the Gertrude Street bar's weekly lineup of specials and parties continues, too, only now with a blissed-out beachy backdrop. Catch taco night every Tuesday, DJs and $10 burgers every Friday and $5 tinnies from the new beach bar from 6–7pm daily. You can check out all the daily specials over here.
The Fitzroy Beach Garden is open from midday–1am daily.
