Free-entry drag bingo, generous pub counter meals, and downstairs clubbing make this Fitzroy mainstay pure electricity. Midweek crowds pack the upstairs tables for rapid-fire banter from the hosts while tucking into hefty Mexican chicken parmas crowned with guacamole and pickled jalapeños. The kitchen turns out no-nonsense comfort food—scrumptious burgers, crunchy fries, and rich mac and cheese croquettes to steady an espresso martini run. Below, Sircuit’s dance floor takes over when the stage numbers wrap, keeping the queer community and party groups locked into the groove until late.
- Free Drag Entertainment & Dining: Free weekly drag bingo and upstairs cabaret routines pair comedic hosts with budget-friendly counter specials like $15 parmas.
- Two-Level Diner & Club Space: Upstairs dining and stage performances connect directly to Sircuit nightclub downstairs for late dancing without switching venues.
- Safe, Inclusive Queer Haven: Known across Smith Street as a fiercely welcoming, relaxed haven for the LGBTIQ+ community and group celebrations.
