About The Valiant Cocktail Bar

Level one on Little Collins tucks away behind a car park entry, trading laneway grit for moody blue lights and disco balls across the ceiling. Down below, Mona’s mural points the way up; inside, the room locks into smooth R&B while shakers stay busy behind the counter. Groups lean into the bottomless rounds without catching an empty glass, pairing blueberry margaritas with fresh focaccia and warm sausage rolls before the DJ picks up the tempo.

  • Bottomless Packages: Free-flowing cocktails paired with warm bites and DJ-driven R&B sets make this speakeasy space a natural draw for milestone group nights.
  • Speakeasy Setting: Tucked on Level 1, the entrance hides past a car park mural before opening into moody blue lights beneath a ceiling of disco balls.
  • Attentive Floor Service: Dedicated floor staff keep drinks topped up and tables sorted throughout lively group celebrations.

  • Disco Ball Ceiling Decor

    A standout canopy of disco balls and moody blue lighting creates an energetic visual setting for group occasions.

    The venue looks amazing and we chose a disco theme for our party due to the venue decor and disco balls all over the ceiling!

  • Celebrations and Group Gatherings

    Groups celebrating milestones and girls' nights out receive seamless, high-touch hospitality.

    Sam and Dani were awesome - they constantly checked in on our table and kept the drinks flowing. The music, decor and general vibes were cool. Highly recommend for a girls night out

  • Seamless Group Nights Out

    Party organizers and private celebration groups find a tailored, vibrant environment for functions.

    Had an amazing girls night out here. Great venue for a date night or group night out. We could still talk, dance and enjoy bottomless cocktails and food.

  • Hidden Speakeasy Entrance

    Tucked above street level with an entrance found via a car park mural, the venue provides a speakeasy arrival experience.

    A little hard to find as you need to go into a car park to find the stairs which lead you upstairs…. however like any great speakeasy it’s worth finding!!!

  • Pre-Dinner Drinks and Wind-Downs

    The relaxed early evening setting serves as an ideal launchpad for pre-dinner cocktails and intimate wind-downs.

    Perfect place for pre-dinner drinks. Quiet and relaxed vibe (we were there early - left @ 6pm). Quirky ceiling, covered in disco balls.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you find the entrance?

The venue can be tricky to spot from the street. Head into the car park entry on Little Collins Street and look for the 'Mona' mural, then take the stairs upstairs to Level 1.

What can you expect from the bottomless package?

The bar offers lively bottomless packages—frequently featuring RNB tunes and DJ sets—with cocktails flowing alongside bites like focaccia, brioche donuts, or sausage rolls.

What is the space and atmosphere like?

The venue is an intimate, smaller space decorated with a quirky ceiling covered in mirror and disco balls, complemented by moody blue lighting. While there is no outdoor balcony, windows open up during warmer months.

Can you book a table for groups or special events?

Yes, reservations are accepted, which is especially helpful since the bar is on the smaller side and commonly hosts birthdays, work parties, and group gatherings.
