A good place to hang out on lazy evenings. If you are looking for not an expensive one, this is the place to be in. I was quite surprised. Right on the Melbourne Central Station, it’s quite approachable. Apart from the indoor experience, they have an outdoor seating too. Staff is courteous and helpful. Enjoy the tap beer, taquilla shots and hard drinks. If you love spicy food, do try Cajun Chicken wings. Chilly squid is also recommended
Was wandering around Melbourne Central and remembered Asian beer cafe on the to level. We came here just before 4pm happy hour and got a seat out on the balcony. The balcony was split between smokers and non smokers... There really wasn't much space between the two sections to be honest. There were several food and drink deals available on the app so we grabbed the two pizza and beer jug deal as well as the three entree deal... Both were good value. Would be happy to come here again.
Have visited ABC a couple of times and have enjoyed the atmosphere and drinks available. There is a nice outdoor balcony area and inside a dance floor. The venue is convenient and easy to get to via public transport, located on the top floors of Melbourne central. Have enjoyed the $45 bottomless cocktails offer with a great selection of cocktails and snacks to choose from. Overall had a great experience with bookings, staff and security.
Always a great experience visiting Asian beer cafe, its loud and busy, great for a fun night out. Cheap drinks, decent snacks, and the indoor space turns to a dance floor in case you feel like dancing, what else can you ask for.... Loved the ability to order from the table otherwise it had always been a pain queuing up.
A nice bar, decently sized and friendly staff however I was extremely disappointed with the cocktails! the port star martini was on tap and tasted nothing like one - and for $19, not worth it. If you’re just after a nice bar that’s big for a beer I’d recommended but wouldn’t try any other drinks!
I can’t even begin to explain how amazing the buffalo chicken and blue cheese was! Like an explosion of flavour, the best I have ever eaten. We get buffalo wings every time we see them on a menu and hands down these are the best ones yet. We also got the Pad Thai, which was also delicious and up there with the best. Quality food, great prices and great location. Returning in the upcoming weeks as I can’t get the blue cheese sauce out of my head.
I'm here for the bar crawl and asked about the 2pizza n jug deal he said its for students. Then suggested to use the QR code at the tables. So we did but it wasn't working. So went back up the bar and then another bar man said kitchen is closed... Would have been nice if the first barman said that before
They have drinks and basic fried/ reheated food. Bar staff not very attentive - even though it was early 6:30 and no queue we had to attract a staff members attention that was more focussed on their phone. Food is dropped on tables with no offer of cutlery or share plates. Then, you need to chase and attract attention again if you want these things. If you expect this experience you will be very happy.
Venue was fine as were the things we had. Issue here is far more serious. A young woman was "dared" to help herself to our beer tower. While my friends and I are not unreasonable and could see the funny side. The staff did nothing to control the situation, which if happened to other people could have been VERY different. There are serious risks sadly these days with drinking thinks you dont know about, and this sort of behaviour is asking for problems from other people. As a matter of safety for this girl who clearly was intoxicated it should have resulted in being kicked out. It was left to myself and my table to suggest to her when she is older she might realise just how stupid that could have been for her. It is the venues responsibility to promote safe behaviour and this really was not the situation here. She was lucky it was us.
We were walking through town for the day and were in Melbourne Central when we wanted lunch. We popped in to the Beer Cafe and didn't realise just how big this place is, the meals were great and we can see ourselves visiting again in the future
