(Entire Venue)

171 Dorcas Street, South Melbourne

About the Venue

171 Dorcas St was specifically designed for functions of less than 100 people. All furniture, sound and lighting has been installed to remove any additional costs. 171 Dorcas St offers a very individual experience for your guests - stunning drinks in a mood filled atmosphere. Cocktail parties, product launches and intimate celebrations are perfect for the size and style. Think of the Meatpacking district New York - underground and just that little bit of cool. Beautiful cocktails and old world service were the motivating forces behind the space. We work with a few caterers to match your style and budget. In any event, 171 Dorcas St will help make it memorable.

There is a kitchen area available to store your food and there are no problems with putting up decorations.
