Polly
The verdict
One of Melbourne's earliest cocktail bars, Polly is still going strong and keeping the Brunswick Street punters well lubricated. Polly is a sumptuous, red velvet-clad lounge, where you'll be all too happy to sink into a plush sofa and make eyes with a tall dark stranger across the room. With an epic cocktail list and staff who know their spirits inside out, Polly is a decadent retreat from modern day stresses and the scene of many a crime against moderation.
