Great food, amazing cocktails, and a beautiful atmosphere
I had the best girls’ night at The Advocate 3101! The atmosphere was beautiful, the cocktails were amazing, and the food was delicious. The staff were lovely, and the fairy-lit garden made it feel so special. If you’re looking for a great spot for a night out with friends, this is it! I’ll definitely be back.
Great cocktails and atmosphere!
Having heard great things about this place from friends, we can see why! Food was delicious, service really attentive and the cocktails were so yummy! We sat in the Library Garden under the lights, never seen such a cute space! We’ll be back as the owner told us they do events! Check this place out :)
Amazing venue, yummy food and delicious cocktails!
Located in the heart of Balwyn, The Advocate felt like a cozy wine bar with an upscale restaurant atmosphere. The venue is stunning, the wine list is great and the food menu is equally impressive, with many share plates good for a date night (or with friends).
The service was exceptional, with friendly, attentive staff who were passionate about both the food and wine. Highly recommend!!!
Best Restaurant & Bar in town
Highly recommend this place.
The ambience, service, food and cocktails are amazing & the decor is absolutely stunning & unique.
Good Food and service . Classy place to go
Magical from the moment you step through the door....
A truly unique and beautifully designed venue, with fantastic use of space. Scrumptious meals coupled with designer cocktails, personalised and attentive service, and live music performances; perfectly suited for a romantic night out with your lover (or future love!), an elegant dinner party with friends and family, or the ideal venue for your next function. If there's something bad about the Advocate, I'm yet to discover it!
