Gin Palace

  • Bar
  • Open late

With over 330 gins and counting, and over 26 years of glory, Gin Palace is a Victorian institution. They have the largest gin selection in the southern hemisphere and are highly renowned for their outstanding signature 90ml martinis. While gin will always take the lead role on this stage, you can rest assured Gin Palace will still serve you some of the best non-gin based classics in town.

The hidden nooks and alcoves in this basement bar provide a luxurious and rare escape in the midst of the bustling city every single day of the year, without fail, during their faithful hours.

With full table service by the sharply dressed, attentive and knowledgeable staff, guests can enjoy snacks with their drinks, from a fun and timeless menu, including an iconic Gin Palace toasted chicken sandwich.

Sink into a luxe lounge, and experience the moody and decadent ambiance of an earlier age.

The City of Melbourne respectfully acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land we govern, the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin and pays respect to their Elders past, present and emerging.

We acknowledge and honour the unbroken spiritual, cultural and political connection the Wurundjeri, Bunurong, Dja Dja Wurrung, Taungurung and Wadawurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin have to this unique place for more than 2000 generations.

We are committed to our reconciliation journey, because at its heart, reconciliation is about strengthening relationships between Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal peoples, for the benefit of all Victorians.
