Discover Fleet Rooftop Bar Melbourne for cocktails with a view
Soaring high above the bustling streets of Melbourne, Fleet Rooftop Bar is the city’s newest sky-high destination. Perched on the 22nd floor of Vibe Hotel Melbourne, Fleet is Flinders Street’s highest rooftop bar, giving guests an unmatched perspective of the city skyline. More than just a place for cocktails, Fleet has been designed as a refined escape where celebration, connection, and indulgence come together in one breathtaking setting. During its inaugural season, the bar will be hosting exciting events, including the much-anticipated Negroni Week at Fleet Rooftop, where mixologists will showcase unique variations of this classic cocktail. Guests can immerse themselves in a vibrant atmosphere while sipping expertly crafted drinks, all complemented by stunning views that enhance the experience. With live music and curated menus, Fleet promises to be a lively hub for both locals and visitors alike.
Fleet’s identity is deeply rooted in Melbourne’s maritime history, drawing inspiration from the stories of ships and trade that once shaped the city. The result is a venue that feels both modern and timeless, combining cinematic interiors with warm hospitality. Guests are welcomed into a space that captures both urban sophistication and effortless charm, making it an ideal backdrop for everything from intimate catch-ups to grand celebrations.
The menu at Fleet is a carefully curated showcase of Australian produce, changing seasonally to keep things fresh and exciting. Whether you are in the mood for light bites or something indulgent to share, there is something to suit every occasion. Among the highlights are Smoky Bay Oysters dressed with bonito and ginger vinaigrette, Half Shell Scallops enhanced with shiitake mushroom XO and lemon balm, and a striking Charred WA Octopus served with sobrasada, kipfler potato, and shaved fennel. For those looking to indulge, the 450g O’Connor Rib Eye with green pepper jus is a centrepiece that brings a table together. To finish, desserts like the Hazelnut Snickers Bar with milk chocolate ganache and grapefruit, or a selection of Australian cheeses, provide a playful yet refined finale. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available, ensuring everyone feels welcome at the table.
Equally impressive is Fleet’s drinks list. The cocktail program celebrates the seasons, offering timeless favourites alongside inventive creations that showcase Melbourne’s diverse flavours. A golden hour Spritz enjoyed while the sun dips below the skyline, or a late-night signature cocktail sipped under the stars, becomes a memory enhanced by the sweeping views. Each drink is designed to pair seamlessly with Fleet’s food menu, creating a complete dining and drinking experience.
