Foo Bar Cocktail Lounge — Restaurant in Melbourne

Wouldn’t come here!! Came here on a Saturday night after Halloween there was a few people in there but not really packed. My friend ordered drinks asked if they could charge his phone as well they put his phone on charge and he paid for his drinks only for the server to hopefully loose his card and have enough decency not to steal it but for some reason she didn’t wanna deal with the situation and did her best to distract herself so 0/10 on customer service. When then had a gentleman named Frank asking us how he could “help” and we tell him well we had gave the server his card to pay for his drinks but he never got his card back his phone died so he didn’t know if they had charged his card or not. Frank looked up his receipt to tell us he didn’t charge us for drinks there no transactions using his card??? My bank says you charged my card… only to be told by frank repeadly say “well our works hand the cards right back”… Frank wasn’t being helpful at all so I went and asked the two friendly male officers outside the bar what’s the right way to handle this. Which we will be contacting again since Frank wasn’t kind enough to check the cameras for us when we asked. We walked back inside realized our friends had already left and as we turned to walked away some random female decided to grab my butt!!! Knowing how unhelpful this place was Ik they surly wouldn’t help since they where making money off this girl getting wasted and inappropriately...

Bar is well maintained and drinks are always good and usual female cocktail server really does a good job and does more than look good. Dress code needs a little work. I went there with my date who was in an elegant dress and heels and I was wearing shined dress shoes, slacks, and long sleeve designer shirt (that didnt have collar). I was turned away. This trip I was sure to have a collar and while we were approaching our usual $60 tab I saw three 21-24 year old males come in wearing sneakers, backpacks, and hooded sweatshirts and looking totally thuggy of course they took up room and didn't order drinks. We soon left as we didnt want to get caught up in what ever they were doing. I asked the doorman what exactly was dress code was as I remembered being turned away and he had no good answer but you need to look presentable. I pointed towards the 3 hooded guys with backpacks and he replied we dont want exclude anyone. I think he knew or was involved in what ever this young group of guys were up to. Foo Bar management... Remember who your core and paying customers are know you have the business you have because of the middle age 4 glass of you best wine and martini people not the...

I'm sO glad they're finally open again!

Lovely Lil loungey bar, I used to actually study here when I was in college because it was so peaceful during the day. I'd like to tink it has grown up, too lol

It's the size of a dive bar, but the service & offerings are much more upscale. Their outside courtyard is so cozy & it's even more beautiful when the moon is out.

+went again recently& this proved to stiLL be my fav, most lit bar in dt melb. None other compare. If they truly wanted to go above all the other classes of bars, they'd also include kombucha- like big Dogs in MI, on their draft. Even just someth as simple of an addition as a deliciously botanical n/a beverage would allow for so many more cX to feel that they can truly ease off, chill longer & friends who choose to stay dry are able to enjoy alongside w/o feeling pressure. Kick it up with adaptogens on Sundays & may everyone...
