How many HATS and how many TATTS, I hear you ask?
Hats: minimal. Tatts: infinite!
The night I went in search of Hats & Tatts – there was no sign out front, just a security dude hovering by a door.
On a not-too-busy street in Melb CBD, I asked: is this Hats & Tatts?!
“YEP!”
Actually he was more chatty than that, because I asked if it was OK if I filmed myself walking into the bar (as I do)
and he was totally COOL with this. Thanks Bourke!!
The ENTRY is WAY up the stairs. THIS clearly is a bar for people ALREADY in the know.
FIRST thing I notice: I can SIT AT THE BAR (my favourite)
SECOND: there is a hazy on tap – ONE SCHOONER plz and thx
From The Mill Brewery “Freshest Haze” DDH HAZY IPA 7%, and it was SO yum!
THIRD: There’s hooks under the BAR – fork yesss
Chucked my handbag there and scanned the menu. Just wanted a quick and easy bite –
A CLASSIC DOG plz
I spied a Street Fighter II game in the corner, some pinball machines and a pool table getting good use.
Was handed a CUTE cup of popcorn – thank you!! I love when that happens
Before my HOTDOG arrived – and for a $10 snack, was exactly what you would expect, but BOY did it go down well with the beer!
There IS a rum bar upstairs, if you’re keen to visit the rooftop (also where the kitchen lives)
Bathrooms: may or may not have a sign. Check for urinals..
Cheers to.. umm the Zoolander reference! and my STICKER is on a fridge somewhere behind that bar.
I forgot to look for HATS.
LOTS of Tatts though!
