The Carlton Information

A Melbourne institution, overseen by Wally the Ostrich and Gerald the Giraffe The Carlton is a wildly decadent, plush and moody space, with four bars and two rooftop bars. Cosy up in one of our private booths, pull up a stool at one of our bars, hit the dance floor or lose yourself under the night sky from our luscious outdoor spaces. The Carlton Bar itself boasts a 24-hour license making hours feel like seconds and every drink feel like your first. The Carlton not only caters for a diverse crowd but also for a variety of needs. Be it a corporate function space, party venue, dinner date or cocktails on a breezy sunset afternoon, we have it all, so why shouldn’t you? “The crowd here can be quite wonderful, almost like a surprise packet of mixed lollies: you might see a few suits quenching a hard-earned thirst, the hipster crowd enjoying the irony of the stuffed ostrich, and a couple of drag queens at home amongst the flamboyance.”
