The Longroom Review

Review By Marina Kociska

The Long Room is an iconic stylish bar scene located in the Georges Building on Collins Street in Melbourne's CBD. The venue is known for its profound style, and inimitable glamour, and is a place which is constantly busy, lively and full of character.

The Long Room sports comfortable decor, with numerous lounges and cosy seating areas located throughout the venue. The name of the venue is descriptive of its true arrangement, and exudes class with a mosaic style interior. The interior echoes Moroccan sunsets, cinnamon scents, and sizzling seductions. Expect to be pushed and shoved here, and anticipate feeling Louis Vuitton bags against your torso, and hearing the sound of ice-cubes hitting glasses, loud and proud profanity, and opulent laughter. The Long Room attracts a mixed-age group, and there is no entry fee.

This conspicuous and eye-catching interior is all it takes to make this venue a constant outing. On Friday and Saturday nights the Long Room kicks off the weekend with some of Melbournes best DJ's and is definitely the place to be seen. Offering a sense of sophistication and prestige, it is expected that patrons do dress to impress! Most men arrive in suits, and women are elegantly endowed with cocktail dresses. It is usually a full house on Fridays, so schedule yourself in early!

The Long Room is famous for its striking party ambiance; however it also offers a la carte menus on weekdays as well as a rejuvenating place to indulge to delicious cuisine and quiet chit chatter. It is most definitely the ultimate venue for any occasion. Long Room's extensive range of food and beverage menus offer that extra bit of uniqueness. Alongside the Japanese and Spanish influences, it truly does offer a fantastic selection of international food and beverage. The Long Room provides the perfect venue for every occasion including corporate functions, event after parties, weddings, birthday celebrations or even just dinner and drinks.
