SOLD - Secret Garden Bar - 1P6006 967
True to its name, Secret Garden is just that. Secreted away from the hustle and bustle of Fitzroy Street in St Kilda. It offers the tranquility of garden daybeds, cocktails on the decking, private areas for a more intimate experience or just dancing the night away. Whatever the vibe, Secret Garden is there to cater.
Outside there is the garden with a capacity of up to a hundred customers with its own bar area, retractable roof and fixed furnishings throughout the area. Across the laneway is the decked area that is fully sheltered, heated and furnished with daybeds and indulgent lounges. It is also fitted with its own separate speaker system. Heading inside there is the dance floor with DJ booth above it. To the right is the bar with a small storeroom and office behind it. On the other side of the dance floor is a VIP function room. Down past the toilets there is a large storage area which is needed to look after all the outside furniture, with a storage cage also part of the lease that is in the base of the main building and a cellar beneath the bar as well.
