There’s something magical about Melbourne in summer — long afternoons, warm nights and that unmistakable buzz across the city. This year, Brunetti Classico Carlton is embracing the season in full spirit with the launch of our brand-new Spritz Bar, a vibrant outdoor pop-up taking pride of place in our forecourt all summer long.

Designed as the ultimate warm-weather hangout, the Spritz Bar brings a taste of Italian summer to the heart of Carlton. Whether you’re catching up with mates, settling in for a lazy afternoon or making the most of those golden hour moments, our outdoor terrace is the place to be — open skies, sunshine and a drink in hand.

A Pop-Up Outdoor Bar Made for Melbourne Summer

Melbourne loves an outdoor bar, and this one is built for exactly that. The Spritz Bar will be pouring a tight, refreshing menu featuring:

• A select range of spritzes
• Ice-cold tap beer
• Classic Italian-inspired beverages perfect for summer sipping

With comfortable seating spread across our terrace, the forecourt becomes an easy, breezy space to relax, unwind and feel transported far away from Melbourne — even though you’re right in the middle of iconic Lygon Street.

The Star of the Show: Italian Flag Spritzes

Our standout for the season is the playful and eye-catching Italian Flag Spritz Trio — three colourful drinks that, when placed together, create the green, white and red of the Italian flag. Perfect for sharing between yourself and two friends, the trio includes:

• Campari Spritz (red)
• Hugo Spritz (white)
• Midori Spritz (green)

It’s a fun talking point, a great photo moment and an easy way to add a little Italian flair to your summer afternoon.

Spritz + Aperitivo = A Trip to Capri

To complete the experience, pair your spritz with one of our classic aperitivi from the Brunetti Classico menu. Think salty bites, fresh flavours and the kind of simple, vibrant food that instantly transports you to the Italian coast.

Close your eyes, take a sip and you could just as easily be enjoying the sunshine on a terrace in Capri — no passport required.

Join Us All Summer Long

The Spritz Bar will be open throughout the entire summer at Brunetti Classico Carlton. When the weather is warm, when the sunlight stretches late into the evening, when you’re looking for the perfect outdoor bar in Melbourne — this is your spot.

Come for the spritz. Stay for the sunshine. Celebrate summer with Brunetti Classico.
