Overview
Perched above Fancy Hank’s BBQ on Bourke Street, Good Heavens Rooftop Bar is a bold and breezy escape in the heart of Melbourne’s CBD. With its retro-inspired design — think pastel pinks, neon signs, and palm-print cushions — the rooftop offers an upbeat, almost Miami-esque atmosphere where fun is always on the menu.
The cocktail list is a celebration of sunshine and creativity. Expect vibrant tropical mixes, playful twists on classics, and frozen favourites that are perfect for sipping al fresco. There’s also a well-rounded selection of wines, local and craft beers, and non-alcoholic options to suit all tastes.
Food-wise, the venue complements its bright drinks offering with American-inspired bites from downstairs neighbour Fancy Hank’s. Think loaded fries, fried chicken sandwiches, sliders, and other satisfying bar snacks that pair perfectly with a cocktail in hand.
While Good Heavens doesn’t take itself too seriously, its attention to quality and detail is evident in both its drinks and hospitality. The bar is open-air, which means sunny afternoons and breezy evenings are the ideal time to visit — though covered and heated areas make it a year-round destination.
It’s a favourite spot for after-work catchups, weekend sessions, and small group celebrations. DJs spin tunes on select evenings, keeping the mood lively but relaxed. Add in city skyline views, and you’ve got one of Melbourne’s most reliable go-to rooftop bars.
