Ms Ava Bar

As Rendezvous Hotel Melbourne’s lobby bar, Miss Ava is named after 1920s actress, Ava Gardner, who stayed and played at the hotel while filming On The Beach in 1959.

Embodying her grace, beauty and charm, Ms Ava serves an elevated bistro-style menu, play tunes from Gardner's late husband, Frank Sinatra, and serve signature cocktails that pay tribute to the actress and her time at the hotel. Think ‘The Ms Ava Bramble 27’ made with Four Pillars Dry Gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, crème de mur or inspired by the movie ‘On The Beach’ is given a holiday twist made of coconut rum, pineapple juice, lime, and a hint of vanilla.
