About Blackout Restaurant and Lounge

Fitzroy nights converge at Blackout with wood-fired pizza, craft cocktails, and smooth shisha across two moody levels. Perched on Brunswick Street, it pulls groups in for late shared plates like chicken chipotle pizza, loaded peri peri fries, and juicy lamb chops. Downstairs pulses with neon lights and weekend belly dancing, while the upstairs lounge lets you settle back over well-packed fruit heads and hot Lebanese tea.

  • Bi-level lounge layout: Split across upstairs and downstairs zones with varied lounges and chairs for lively crowds or relaxed unwinding.
  • Late-night dining plates: Full kitchen menu featuring wood-fired pizzas, loaded fries, and generous meat platters with lamb chops.
  • Full-service shisha session: Meticulously packed tobacco flavors, fast coal service, and fresh fruit head options paired with cocktails.
