Bar Carlo

Best Known For

Simple, hand-prepared Italian food and cicchetti.

Continuing a 50-year family tradition of innovation, Bar Carlo on Meyers Place serves simple, hand-prepared Italian food and cicchetti to discerning Melbourne foodies. Started by pioneer Carlo Sabbadini and now carried on by his grand-daughter, Bar Carlo embraces the ethos that the simple things in life are often the best – good coffee, good wine, cocktails and the infamous Spritz. Enjoy the city’s laneway culture alfresco for coffee early on, or drop by later and relax in a moody interior vibe of dark wood furniture, softly glowing globes and splashes of greenery. From an ever-changing menu grab a porchetta panini, with roast pork, asiago cheese, tomato, lettuce, mayonnaise and a side of fries; washed down by an Aperitif of Leone Spritz – the only place in the country to serve Leone.
