The Shady Lady
6.7Locals Score / 10#15 of 20 Bars & Nightlife in Melbourne
Known forCreative cocktailsPina coladasClassic shotsTap beers
A dimly lit, atmospheric bar on Johnston Street in Fitzroy with an owner who genuinely cares about making guests feel welcome. Order creative cocktails, classic shots, or tap beers in a cosy space lit by interesting lamps and neon. The main caveat: one review appears to be about an online merchandise order rather than the bar itself, so focus on the in-person drinking experience.
