Neighbourhood Wine, Fitzroy North

Neighbourhood Wine Bar, the warmest wine bar in Fitzroy North, welcomes locals with a selection of local international wines and French-style food in a dim, moody setting.

The wooden flooring, darkly lit lounge areas and clubhouse atmosphere seem tailor-made for a fancy dinner or drink. Wines from all over the world (including Japan and Lebanon) are stacked on open wrought-iron shelves in the main dining area, and the wine list rivals that of some of the city's best restaurants. The Coffin Bay oysters are paired with a tart red wine and shallot vinaigrette, and the creamy yet delicate 2010 Domaines Guillot-Broux Macon Chardonnay from Burgundy is a recommended pairing. Slow-cooked meat is juicy and perfect for sharing with roast vegetables and fresh salads.

Address: 1 Reid Street, Fitzroy North Victoria 3068
