Scotties Garage Cafe — Restaurant in Melbourne

Scotties Garage is a live music venue open Friday and Saturday nights and Sunday afternoons. It is primarily a 'biker bar' frequented by motorcycle social groups and those with association with that community (No, not your Son's of Anarchy stereotypes.

Don''t let this deter you as the management and crowd are accepting of all and will welcome you with open arms. Possibly the most inclusive venue you will ever find. You will not be judged there.

Just saying the average age would be 45-60 year old Baby boomers. A relaxing and refreshing experience.

Unfortunately, I don't hold much hope for the future of the business...

Felt uncomfortable at first but the whole placed rocked and the bikies were great. In short, good afternoon even though I had no leather and I was in my Snow White tshirt. Thankfully, Snow White had a shotgun...
