LIFE’S TOO SHORT BAR is Melbourne’s most romantic hidden gem, housed in the 160-year-old bluestone cellars of the former Victoria Brewery. With around 28 wines by the glass, over 40 cocktails and 12 eclectic brews, there’s also an extensive European-themed gluten-free and coeliac-safe tapas and dining menu available from early afternoon until 11pm at night. There’s also an old and rare cellar wine list available with wines up to 20 years old.
Visiting Life’s Too Short is unlike most other dining experiences – it’s more like visiting a private lounge room than a bar, with super comfy chairs and couches and relaxing bossa-nova jazz. Rotating art exhibitions on the gallery walls and live jazz most Thursdays means there’s always something new to see and hear ... and whether it be cocktails, wine or food, there’s always something new to try!
FRONTLINE DISCOUNT: Medical staff, police, Abulance and Firefighters can enjoy 10% off their bill. ID required.

2024年2月21日 - 2024年12月29日
Love fine wine? Re-experience the joy of cellared (older) vintages with a customised back-vintage flight of new and old-world wines from Australia and overseas. Enjoy 4, 6 or 8 wines (50ml pours) with optional matched artisan cheeses and/or salamis and a little wine education.
Come and put arguably Melbourne's best Espresso Martini to the test for $18, all day every day, as long as you ask nicely. Featuring fresh-pulled Code Black 3056, top-shelf spirits and two extra special secret ingredients, it's not just a Martini, it's a Royale.
Cute little bar that punches well above its weight with food and wine. Tony is a great source of advice for which wine to try next. Chef Sigrid's food is top-notch. The jazz guitarist created a pleasant vibe while we grazed on a charcuterie board and tried new grape varietals. Very enjoyable evening. Thanks to the whole team.

Great food, drinks and service. The live jazz on a thursday night was perfect- beautiful music played so well & perfect volume for the venue. A highlight of our Melbourne stay- we'll definitely be back!
