Trinket Bar Melbourne

We'd been to Trinket a few times for drinks and food and that was enough for a five star review, but we loved the place so much we thought we'd see if they could host our wedding reception... and they could! We booked out the entire venue and it was the most amazing experience. Utter perfection. Jonathon and his team are amazing to deal with in the preparation and on the night. Really did their absolute best to make us feel like the stars of the evening. Thank you so much :)

We had a brilliant time here tonight. The staff were lovely and hospitable, and the vibe was great. The drinks and food came out quickly and the portion size on the fries was more than generous. We saw some incredible food coming out but only stayed for drinks, though we're planning to come back and try more food soon. 5/5, highly recommend this excellent bar.

A great example of a modern Melbourne cocktail bar. The cocktail I chose was very tasty and had a fire show on delivery. Very cool and fun and Instagram does represent the bar quite well. I guess I was just taken back by the lack of variety in spirit choices in cocktails, having to order only on the table beacons, I couldn’t get any variety of drink; Eg: dirty martini with a higher shelf spirit, and the staff not once stopped to see if I needed anything (that’s the beacons job though 🤷🏻‍♀️). Having the longer wait on my drink bugged me slightly more once I couldn’t get a drink I actually wanted. I’m sure this experience wasn’t exactly what they normally offer though!

We popped in for a quick bite to eat as I had been wanting to try this place for a long time. Ordered the simple pepperoni pizza, the caprese salad, and the grilled broccolini. This place is marketed as a pizza bar and the pizza was worse than Pizza Hut. The pizza was lukewarm and the crust was super thick and soggy. It seemed like they used an entire jar of tomato sauce- straight from a can and tasteless. The menu claims, “loads of pepperoni”, but there were maybe five pieces. It looked nothing like the photo in the menu. For the caprese salad there was barely any stracciatella. Would never recommend the food here to anyone. Absolutely terrible and such a disappointment.

Caught up with my girlfriends here early on a Thursday evening. We had a booking and were quickly seated. Most tables were taken, so recommend booking. Food and drink orders can either be done through the QR code at the table or at the bar in person. We each had a couple of cocktails which were delicious and shared a couple of pizzas, calamari and fries. Calamari was deliciously tender and seasoned. I was disappointed with the mushroom pizza as it tasted like the mushrooms were from a tin or jar and not fresh, they felt a bit slimy and I ended up scraping them off. It was still a great couple of hours (there is a 2 hour limit on early bookings) and place has a great vibe and feel to it. A good age range mix of customers too. Good service.
