About Johnny’s Green Room

Perched above King & Godfree in Carlton, this open-air rooftop serves crisp spritzes and blistered pizzas against panoramic city skyline views. Down an alleyway off Lygon Street and up a discreet lift, the sun-drenched terrace balances bustling aperitivo energy with plenty of room to breathe under wide umbrellas. Whole pizzas land at the table unsliced to keep the crust blistered and toppings intact before you cut in. Regulars order via table QR codes or grab house-made limoncello straight from the bar as sunset settles over Melbourne.

  • Sweeping Skyline Views: Elevated vantage point atop King & Godfree overlooking the Melbourne CBD skyline.
  • Whole Unsliced Pizzas: Pies arrive at the table unsliced to maintain crust texture and ingredient arrangement.
  • Spacious Rooftop Terrace: Sunlit terrace featuring open-air umbrella seating, banquettes, and plenty of breathing room.
  • Laneway Lift Entrance: Discreet lift and alleyway staircase access tucked right off Lygon Street.
