Tucked away in one of Melbourne’s iconic laneways, Chapati turns up the heat with bold spices, modern Indian plates, and a rhythm that keeps you lingering late into the night. Downstairs hums with street-food energy, curries that comfort, tandoori that smoulders, and the cult-favourite Chicken 65.
Climb the stairs and the mood shifts. Daaru, a sultry cocktail bar glowing in Gingerboy’s former hideout—shakes up drinks with fire and flair. Think a jalapeño-spiked espresso martini, tequila laced with charred spices, or a smoked whiskey sour that arrives like theatre at your table.
Food and drink flirt effortlessly here, with late-night bites, paneer fries, beetroot kebabs, spiced nibbles that were made to mingle with the cocktails. It’s bold, it’s playful, it’s unmistakably Melbourne.
