trust bar - 405-411 flinders lane melbourne 3000 9629 9300
this sort of place should be jammed on excellent thursday or even mediocre wednesday. there was lots of empty space and there were places where people weren't standing either. imagine a mix of b(w)ankers, guidos, old people in cardigans, and rip-curl boys all in the one place. this place is having a serious identity crisis. and i haven't even got on to the drinks yet. let's face it, if someone sealed the doors and threw in a few grenades, would anyone miss these people? i'm not encouraging anybody to do that. my point is that there are about 200 bars in the city and about 198 places better to go. the other shit one is pony.
the bar staff would walk over your dead corpse so jumping up and down waving money only marginally increases the chance of getting a drink. and what a drink! they must be saving on ice. and alcohol. because my gin and tonic was all tonic, three cubes of ice and a dribble of gin. if you're going to run a proper bar, drinks are going to be somewhere near the top of the 'got to do this right' list. but i think you can see, this is where it all falls apart with trust. it's a shit bar for wankers who are pissed by 4pm on a thursday or friday afternoon and wouldn't notice if they were drinking vodka and lime or a mc thick shake.
bar cafe lounge? it's a fucking bar, and not a very good one.
