Welcome to StoryVille
Step off Lonsdale Street and into a fairytale.
Once upon a time down a laneway, through a curious little door, and into a world that felt strangely familiar, there was a bar called StoryVille.
Inspired by the whimsy of Alice in Wonderland, the magic of Harry Potter, the escapism of Narnia, and the mischief of Peter Pan, StoryVille was created as a place where adults could reconnect with the stories that once sparked their imagination, right in the heart of the Melbourne CBD.
In the early evening, the bar feels nostalgic.
Cocktails bubble like potions, books line the walls, and fairytales unfold one drink at a time.
But after dark, the story takes a turn.
Think Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas with a splash of pixie dust.
It gets louder, wilder, and a little bit strange.
Whether you’re sipping from a smoking goblet or dancing under enchanted mushrooms, StoryVille is a celebration of the surreal, the magical, and the joy of letting go.
This chapter is yours.
