Be one of the first to check out this cheeky Chapel Street haunt.
Sistine, a seductive cocktail bar from the renowned VALARC Group, may be one of Melbourne’s most controversial new bars. Drawing inspiration from the famed Sistine Chapel in the Vatican City, this bar mixes Rennaisance aesthetics with a touch of modern sophistication and a little dash of trouble.
Located above the popular Ines Wine Bar on Chapel Street in Windsor, Sistine promises to be the city’s newest hotspot for late-night revelry and indulgence.

Each room is named after iconic locations within the Sistine Chapel, and the décor features stunning coloured-glass windows and curated paintings, enhancing the immersive experience. The interiors reflect this theme, with plush velvet furnishings, dim lighting and luxurious seating that create a refined yet intimate atmosphere.
One of Sistine’s standout features is its innovative snack offering, the Immaculate Conception vending machine, a Melbourne first. The vending machine features a rotating selection of curated bites from the Ines Wine Bar Kitchen, including indulgent treats like caviar served with a mother-of-pearl spoon, salumi plates, gourmet crisps, and even recovery kits for those needing to nurse a post-night-out headache.
For cocktail lovers, Sistine delivers a menu of decadent drinks that align with its themes of indulgence. Highlights include the champagne-based Royal Lucre, the dangerously smooth Holy Water martini, and a modern twist on the classic appletini, the Forbidden Fruit.
These signature cocktails are complemented by an extensive reserve wine list and a dedicated champagne selection. To add another layer of exclusivity, Sistine introduces its loyalty program, the coveted Sistine Rosary Beads, offering guests access to unique perks and special treats.
With a resident DJ spinning tracks every Friday and Saturday night, Sistine is poised to become Windsor’s go-to destination for those seeking a stylish and hedonistic night out.
Matteo Bruno, owner of the VALARC Group, shares his excitement: “Sistine is a cheeky addition to our portfolio. We’ve designed every detail to offer something fresh and fun, creating a place where people can let their hair down, meet new friends, and enjoy a big night out.”
Sistine will be open from 6pm until late, Thursday through Saturday. Get ready for a night of temptation, luxury, and indulgence at Melbourne’s hottest new bar.
