While only open a mere year or so, Long Play already feels like a seasoned veteran.

Venetian blinds, polished wood, a short and sharp wine list and a large yet equally sharp vinyl collection, complemented by some surprisingly decent Mediterranean style fare and a couple of very friendly and reassuringly regular barkeeps.

Occasionally showing film screenings out the back in a small cinema space, the bar itself remains the better place to settle in, as with Joe’s or Gerald’s. St Georges Road strikes again…

Open from 6pm daily – 11pm weeknights & 1am weekends.
318 St Georges Road Road, North Fitzroy.
