Southbank and Docklands are great for waterfront venues and skyline views, while Richmond and Fitzroy are favourites for their relaxed, food-loving scenes. The CBD has many central spots for easy access by public transport, and South Yarra stands out for its high-end venues and rooftop spaces. If you want something a little more scenic, areas like Olinda and Black Rock offer restaurants with leafy surrounds or beachfront vibes.
Absolutely. Melbourne has many private restaurants that still feel like a party spot. Places like The National Hotel in Richmond or The Victoria Hotel in the CBD have private rooms for groups of 10–30. It's not just about size; it's the vibe. You'll get great food, your own space, and usually a custom menu or drinks package. It's perfect if you want something social but not too over-the-top.
Start with how many people you're inviting. This helps you narrow things down fast. If you're going big (like 100+), check out venues like Cargo Hall or The Hall at Welcome to Brunswick. They've got the space and the flexibility for DJs, dance floors, and custom setups. Many big restaurants have in-house events teams, so you're not figuring it out solo. Filter by capacity on Tagvenue and go from there — super simple.
