The Barre - Southbank

This small bar and restaurant located near the arts center is a great spot to grab food and drinks before or after a show. The prices are reasonable, it's not too crowded, and VCA students can enjoy discounts. Perfect for a casual hangout.

The Barre, Arts Centre Melbourne’s latest food and beverage offering, is taking over the space formerly occupied by Curve Bar.

The food and drinks at this restaurant are delicious. The service is great, and the atmosphere is nice as well. I will definitely return when I visit the Arts Centre again.

We are excited to celebrate the newly renovated Curve Bar, now known as 'The Barre' (pronounced as 'The Bar'). It will be fun when you invite friends to meet you at the bar and they ask which one. The bar used to be called 'The Curve Bar' because it is located above the ticket box in the spiral Arts Center building. The building is round and the bar is within a curve. We will refer to it as the 'old curve bar' to make it easier to coordinate meetups.

Time Out’s exclusive event this Tuesday August 30 at Arts Centre Melbourne’s new bar, The Barre, is sure the be a memorable night!. Lucky attendees will get to experience the new space, while enjoying some of Melbourne’s finest arts, culture, food and drinks. Collingwood brewery Stomping Ground, will be in attendance serving up crisp, cold brews, while cocktails made with Yarra Valley’s finest gin Four Pillars will be a nice alternative.
