LIVE COMEDY goes down at their Basement Comedy Club. An electric neon-lit space that draws inspiration from the legendary comedy clubs of New York City, it’s the perfect place to catch your next favourite act.
FAMOUS FOR their recent Arj Barker residency, which saw the ARIA Award-winner and Australia’s favourite inherited comic bringing his set to Morris House from July 18.
INFAMOUS FOR their Sunday Long Lunches, which take place every week from noon. With house-made focaccia and classic beef wellington served with red wine jus, complemented by an abundance of sides, you’ll be so full you’ll have to roll home.
The CBD’s newest four-storey gem, Morris House, is here, it’s got beer, and it’s set to take Melbourne’s pub scene by storm. Formerly known as the European Bier Café, this iconic venue has just swung its doors open after a $4 million transformation.
With a capacity to host a whopping 550 guests across its four revitalised levels, Morris House is the ultimate hotspot for all things fun and fabulous. The cherry on top? The rooftop – a lush oasis boasting a retractable roof – provides a leafy-green escape where you can savour leisurely lunches, dusk cocktails, and late-night revelry, regardless of the season.
With exposed brick walls and moody lighting, their Basement Comedy Club sets the stage for uproarious performances by local talents and headline acts every Friday and Saturday night, with the famed Arj Barker having kicked off his residency on July 18.
Melbourne’s foodies are in for a real treat, thanks to the masterful menu crafted by Executive Chef Christian Abbott. From the delectable baked camembert with confit garlic and rosemary to the heavenly boozy New York cheesecake with Manhattan jelly, every dish is a delightful journey of taste.
On the ground floor, the revamped dining room welcomes guests with plush leather booths and a chic marble bar conveniently positioned off the bustling city sidewalk. It’s the perfect spot for a laid-back mid-week lunch or your post-work knockoff drinks.
Meanwhile, the level one bar and terrace offer a cozy setting with booth seating and a splendid view of Exhibition Street, setting the scene for soulful live music every Friday and $16 Negronis coupled with smooth Jazz every Thursday.
