  • People drinking in a red-lit bar with neon 'The Den' sign, brick wall and lamps.
  • Diners' hands with glasses of wine and plate of cheese, crackers and charcuterie.
  • One hand holding a whisky sour cocktail, another using chopsticks to select items from plates of chips and other snacks.
  • Lots of people sitting at tables in a dark, crowded red-lit bar.

The Den

  • Bar
  • Casual dining

The Den can be found under The Atlantic restaurant at Crown Melbourne - modelled on the speakeasies of yesteryear with a sleek, sophisticated twist.

The room is decked out with bookcases, heirlooms, velvet sofas, Persian rugs, cottage chairs and a grand piano.

It is a great place to relax away from the hustle and bustle of Crown. You can sip on rare whiskies and other spirits or grab yourself a bottle from the extensive wine list. If you're feeling like you need something with a bit more try one of their expertly made cocktails.

If you get hungry there is an excellent menu of bites available.
