Boilermaker House

This is a bit hit and miss, still finding it’s identity. They make some great cocktails and the staff are friendly and helpful. The food menu could do with some work as it’s done elsewhere. The do a lot of beer but also have good whiskies and scotch. Charcuterie is ok but for a beer place, it needs beer snacks.

Love this place! Tasty as burger, and definitely great for the Whisky lovers. My favorite are the Boilermakers which are a whisky matched with a beer — definitely try this

Were there with the busy late Friday night crowd, and as I’m just getting into my whisky and heard good things I was pretty excited to finally be popping in. Place is suitable dark and cool inside and the staff were very helpful and knowledgeable.
Of course I got a boiler-​maker, which was a little pricier than I was expecting, but you get that when trying new whiskies. Found the food pairing you get with a BM a little odd — it was so tiny you wonder why they bother — but otherwise the beer and whisky pairing was perfect, and I’ll be back to try a bunch more stuff soon.

One of the bar staff here had some serious attitude towards one of my friends, which is a big turn off for me, so while I loved having some drinks here recently, it was a shame that his behaviour put us off so much! Luckily there was another staff member who was possibly the loveliest of all time, so she made up for her colleague.
A great CBD spot for whisky fans, and a pretty good vibe. Will no doubt be busy most of the time, but this was a perfect location for some birthday drinks after a gig recently. They have really nice booth areas which are hopefully available to book, and the menu is pretty extensive with cocktails, boilermakers (beer and whisky combos), beers and the usual. Lots of snacks, meat boards and cheese too! You can always win me over with cheese…

What a nice little find on Lonsdale street, can almost be missed — however, once you’re inside, you wont miss the fantastic arangement of spirits displayed behind the bar, like a wall of art!
Cocktails all look amazing both on the menu & on the bar as the bartenders work at making them all look so good you almost won’t want to drink it.
Also an ever changing selection of beers on offer
The problem is, will you be able to choose?

Whisky lovers, this place have rows and rows of whisky, on the visit, I had 3 cocktails and my favourite is Miss Decadence, it came in a coffee cup with a biscuit. I prefer my cocktail to not taste like alcohol and this taste like a dessert. I would come back to this place just for the cocktail.
Like any bar, the music is a tad too loud and conversation is a little hard with those caross the table when you are in the booth.

The capable staff from Eau De Vie have created a sophisticated whisky & beer bar in the Melbourne CBD. Ladies — this a great place to bring your man for a date. Gentlemen — this is a great place to take this lady for a date. There are approximately 600 different whiskeys available and a good variety of independent craft beers that rotate on tap. The menu is arranged by flavour, rather than origin, so it’s accessible for both connoisseurs and novices. I recommend trying one of their signature boiler makers. It’s a craft beer and whiskey pairing served with a small, flavourful bite, such as a square of dark chocolate or a crispy piece of bacon. These paired items work together to enhance each other’s flavours for your drinking pleasure. The team is also working to create a selection of quality meats and cheeses.
This is not the place for students looking to down Irish car bombs. Come here for quality drinks and conversation. I visited Boilermaker late on a Sunday evening and appreciated the relaxed atmosphere that gave us time to chat with our bartender. Word on the street is that the weekends are already busy at this new establishment, so you may want to plan accordingly.
