The overview

About Caretaker's Cottage

Caretaker's Cottage is a pint-sized cocktail bar set inside a charming heritage cottage on Little Lonsdale Street in Melbourne's CBD. The space is cosy and close-quartered, with a handful of bar seats and standing spots that give the room a buzzing, social feel.

The cocktail list is playful and inventive, with a reputation for fun signature drinks, and the bartenders often double as the night's DJs. It works well for pre-drinks before a show or concert, and trades until 1am on Fridays and Saturdays.
