MELBOURNE | Daddy Bar is a small local’s bar housed in a former bank vault just off Sydney Road in Brunswick. It’s owned by sisters Ellie Hunt and Shellinda King, and their friend Nicholas Limberis, who wanted to create a venue that anyone could feel welcome in, and that reflected them.
At the front, there’s a few seats on the footpath and a semi-covered outdoor space wit ha few more seats. Inside, its an eclectic, retro vibe. Think kitsch lounge room meets dive bar meets artist space. It’s a cosy, unpretentious space, fitted out with upcycled salvaged furniture and an assortment of nick knacks.
On the drinks menu, you’ll find a few beers on tap and in the fridges, a small but diverse wine list, and a selection of house and classic cocktails. It’s all locally sourced, quality stuff. There’s also a few snacks like Pocky sticks, pie and tart slices, and toasties.
Happy hours and daily specials are generous, and the space also doubles as a gallery for local artists. Check out the walls on any given day and you’ll see featured artist’s works, which are available to purchase.
