Blackcat Fitzroy

I walked in because I saw someone reading a book on the canopied bench outside with a coffee and they looked like the kind of afternoon I wanted to have in Melbourne. Friendly staff + great vibes + naturally sunlit cafe with plenty of seating options inside and outside. Didn’t try any of the food but the drink selection was fantastic. They had my favourite Strangelove yuzu drink

I've been there to see Salar Haghighi's photos and find out what a great place to have a nice night. Every details in this bar was exactly in a perfect sense. Trust me you won’t regret it.

The Black Cat reminds me a lot of Central Perk from Friends, in that there is always a group of people who are sitting in the couches you wanted to sit in for far too long. Pub is otherwise amazing, one of my favorite spots to people watch in Melbourne

Love the vibe, and the variety of drinks here, price is reasonable. Good music playlist🤩, love the lighting and ambience✨

Cool, mellow vibes. Lounges and cute tables. Lovers everywhere, great spot for couples. Cocktails were great. Really enjoyable experience!

Blonde staff member should learn some basic customer service and limit her hand gestures and the use of literally. Had a lovely drink standing next to someone’s table. Literally go anywhere else.

Vibey atmosphere, however was ruined by the service. Asked the bartender what beers they have and just pointed at the fridge, as if we could see. Asked if they had Corona, and was given attitude saying in a rude tone that they "don't stock mainstream beers, and they only support local brands". It's okay if they only carry local brands, but she just assumed everyone knows that. Cocktails are also pretty pricey, considering they don't do anything special to them.

This place is all about the vibes. Gorgeous mood lighting, super cosy, DJ spinning tracks all night, couches everywhere and great range of cocktails. Probably my favourite bar in Melbourne.
