Transit

Transit Bar in Melbourne

Located atop the Transport Hotel building in Federation Square, Transit Bar in Melbourne offers one of Melbourne’s largest rooftop experiences. Its expansive terrace provides uninterrupted views of iconic landmarks like the MCG, Melbourne’s art precinct, and the Southbank promenade.

Whether you prefer to enjoy stylish cocktails and delicious food on the warm, heated terrace or in the cabaret-style interior, Transit has something for everyone. Throughout the week, Melbourne’s vibrant music scene comes alive with jazz, blues, funk, reggae, and rhythm and blues musicians taking to the stage.

Operating hours are from Monday to Sunday, allowing ample time to soak in the atmosphere and enjoy the offerings. For bookings or inquiries, contact us at 03 9654 8808 or via email at bookings@transporthotel.com.au.

With a prime viewing position, Transit makes the most of its surroundings. The bar’s big outdoor deck is perfect for idly watching the river, city, and sunset. While there’s a good selection of beer and wine, Transit truly shines with its inventive cocktails, featuring favorites like the Monkey Gland and Naked and Famous.

For food, indulge in dishes from the downstairs Taxi Kitchen, such as candied pork with red nam jim and Szechuan duck with five-spice caramel.

Transit isn’t just a bar—it’s a jazz and cocktail experience. Live bands grace the stage every Saturday night, while Wednesdays and Fridays feature live piano performances. DJs keep the energy high on Fridays after the pianist finishes, and Sundays are upgraded with acoustic sets from 3-6 pm. Join us at Transit Rooftop Bar for an unforgettable evening of music, cocktails, and stunning views.
