Vic M. • March 10, 2018Phenomenal sound. Truly excellent if you are here for a sit down performance, the seats are incredibly comfortable too.

MelbourneLily • October 26, 2011The best tea room in Melbourne, lovely staff and gorgeous gallery exhibits

Sigrid d. • April 2, 2016Great space for performances. Nearby restaurants Script and Blondie Bar both very good but book ahead if you're seeing a show as they're booked out for walk-ins until after 8pm.

Lisa S. • October 18, 2018It's one of the best museums I've been to! The science section shows so much dedication and love and insight! Great for young and old, solo and and with family. Definitely a must see in Melbourne! ❤️

Just J. • July 14, 2015An incredible place with an amazing exposition. it tells the movie history of the world through its special effects. a lot of interactive elements for the customers to enjoy

Tomfoolery • May 15, 2015Get there early to appreciate the quirky 'golden' interior design and the artworks in the foyer, they've got some incredible Arthur Boyd's

(S-H) • July 5, 2013The Dragon was great!!

PJ W. • January 21, 2015With the roof added for this season (2015), it feels brand new. It's my favorite arena in the tennis complex. It's smaller then the rest of the covered courts, which makes it much more intimate.

Tomfoolery • September 21, 2016If you love classic film, this is a haven. Definitely the best theatre in Melbourne (actually it's one of the reasons I moved here). Prices are good considering they're almost all double features.

Tim M. • February 3, 2022Ask to play either course upstairs. Forget the course downstairs. Enjoy a cocktail as you play!

Venoth • October 11, 2016The design of this place is just amazing. Lovely architecture and rich with tradition.

Robert J. • December 23, 2015Great venue for outdoor concerts - arrive early though to claim a great view

Mia • April 16, 2015A must see if you are into street art.

Jason T. • October 10, 2018I love watching movies on the bigger screen here and it isn’t too inconvenient to get to with an Uber. They have member discounts which make it more affordable and the food is simple but good!

Sam • March 27, 2016Beautiful old theatre. Definitely check this out inside as well as outside.

Megan T. • September 11, 2015Beautiful theatre. Make sure you look up!

Xoanon • March 24, 2010If it's a balmy evening, arrive early and sit outside with a drink until the show starts - it's very pleasant!

xxx x. • November 23, 2013Great service as it meant to be, if you're unsure about front seats, they're quiet far from the screen.. If you're planning to dine and wine during the movie, prefer back seats for the others comfort.

Simon T. • November 17, 2010See a show here. Anything. It's a beautiful cabaret room to be in; a sublime, intimate world of its own.

Ratih • February 5, 2013The meat sandwiches are pretty good! For $7 I must say it's quite worth it! :) Oh! And hv I mentioned they use that Zip Hydrotap thing so you can quench your thrist stylishly? :)

Nigel • January 22, 2022The improvements made here in recent years are fantastic. Padded seating, renovated bathrooms and spacious lobby areas.

Sherlynn • February 5, 2014amazing place with great pieces of art, a must come!

Alex • May 25, 2018The Killers were amazing!! Great accessibility for PwD, kind staff. Disabled toilets: there should be more than 1 per level! Healthy people need to see: it’s for disabled people, not a makeup room.

Kate B. • October 23, 2011Wonderful, intimate yet spacious cinemas and the more decent array of films

Ann B. • March 18, 2013My elderly mother-in-law had trouble with the steps to our Dress Circle seats. Staff noticed, immediately offered assistance, & advised us of an easier exit route for after the show. So appreciated!

Kevin Y. • April 2, 2017Lovely little theatre! There are no bad seats.

Mitch F. • October 29, 2010The show is amazing!!! :)
