We regret that Rooftop Cinema is not wheelchair accessible. You can, but not on the synthetic-grass area during the films. A cinema on a roof in the heart of Melbourne. Owned and operated by a sharp team of creative minds, Rooftop Cinema is committed to showcasing arthouse, classic and recent release films in a completely unique urban environment. Rooftop Cinema is built to be an urban idyll, a complete contrast to the noise, bustle and crowds of the city. Up on the roof you have the sky above you, the grass beneath you, and a film and the Melbourne skyline in front of you. A bar on a roof in the heart of Melbourne. Open every day from 11am to 1am in summer and from midday during winter. The Good Copy is a writing studio, a shop, a school and a publisher. These disparate-sounding endeavours all revolve around writing. The shop sells writing equipment and hosts writing events, the school teaches punctuation and grammar, the writing studio does writing work, the publishing arm publishes written things.
The Good Copy hopes that all of this will result in writers getting more work, writers meeting other writers, writers learning to be better writers, writers never running out of four-colour pens, and writers having a nice warm spot to sit with their computers so they stop getting kicked out of cafes.Gemima Cody selects the city's best new places to drink on high and the classic hits for 2016. More rooftop bars have sprung up in the past six months than in the previous six years in Melbourne. Which expands the list beyond the same five or so bars you already have hard-wired in, ready to be texted out as a bat signal whenever the sun shines. Small but mighty, the stripey umbrella and tinnie-equipped deck at the top of the renovated Marquis of Lorne pub is one of the best of the new bunch. .auTechnically it's a terrace, and it's only open for private parties until it becomes part of the French Saloon in March, You might have only seen the inside of the Imperial during rugby matches, but now you can see a lot more of both it and the city from the giant upper decks.
It has 20 beers from the world's big players on tap and the booziest of snacks – onion rings, burgers and cubanos. .auPart of the recent makeover of the James Squire brewhouse involved lifting the lid off. It's a rustic job maintaining the original brick archways and pink-hued bricks, so it's somewhat like drinking your brews from within the ribcage of a giant salmon. Further updates: the menu has gone contemporary and hops have been planted around the edges to complete the brew pub feel. Still the best option in the city for cocktails and food that match the height of the actual bar. The terrace is surrounded by glittering city towers, the negronis tight and the snacks Spanish. Stay tuned for renovations. .auAs long as Siglo lives, it gets a place on this list. It's the perfect storm – classic bones, wicker chairs and parliamentary views meet a high-end drinks list that judges no-one, deals with everyone from your Old World wine swillers to the European beer fans and the Bacardi-and-Coke crowd who cluster in smoke-shrouded groups late into the night.
.auThe cinema in summer; You face two lines to get in – first to the downstairs pintxos bar where snacks on bread and flavoured vodkas rule, and then another for the lift to the roof, where the cocktails, while ambitious, can be a little loose on execution beyond a negroni. But there's no arguing with views all the way to the Dandenongs and a frosty pint. .auThe foliage has finally grown-in, making this the garden in the sky it was always meant to be, with fruit-forward cocktails to match – high five, whoever came up with the sloe loris (a sloe gin and ginger situation, built for four). Beers are Boags, Stella and a couple of craftier options and the food is tailored for drinking (including a few sliders and a calamari salad), but the city views, and daytime sessions on weekends, put it ahead of the pack..auThe bamboo-lined rooftop makes this mod-Vietnamese bar and diner in Balaclava. You'll have to fight for space in summer when everyone's smashing through banh mi, giant Beerlao and some well-made cocktails filled with spice, herbs and coconut foams, but you can book for groups of six plus and the Local Taphouse next door also has an upstairs deck as a solid fall back (or plan A if you're into craft beer).188 Carlisle Street
