If you’ve ventured down to the Windsor end of Chapel Street you’ve likely clocked it being one of Melbourne’s hottest after-hours districts. With plenty of late-night venues packing out the area, one spot not to miss is Tombo Den, a two-storey izakaya-inspired venue from hotshot restaurateur Chris Lucas (Society, Kisume). Channeling the raucous grit of Tokyo’s alleyway eateries with an elevated twist, it’s easy to see why they pack a crowd.
From June 26 to July 24, Tombo Den wants to dial up your Friday with Vinyl Nights, a late-night spin sesh in collaboration with Johnnie Walker. Start (or end) your night upstairs at Tombo Den for a vinyl-spun soundtrack with exclusive limited-edition Johnnie Walker Black Ruby cocktails flowing.
What’s on the menu? For $15, you can take your pick from three bespoke cocktails including the Black Ruby Fizz, which mixes raspberry, davidson plum and shiso umeshu with Johnnie Walker Black Ruby. Get your caffeine fix with the Midnight Walker cocktail, a coffee, macadamia, wattleseed, matcha foam and Johnnie Walker Black Ruby concoction. There’s also Smoke and Ruby, a blend of blackberry, yuzu, pineapple, apricot, citrus bubble and Johnnie Walker Black Ruby. Alongside the drinks, a dedicated snacks menu will be on offer.
Catch the limited-time collab from 8pm till late every Friday night from June 26 to July 24. Miss the Friday festivities? The limited-edition Johnnie Walker cocktails will still be pouring all week long for $22.
