Why it's worth checking out
Three Monkeys sits on Chapel Street in Prahran, one of Melbourne's most famous dining-and-nightlife strips in the inner south-east. A much-loved bar, it's earned a strong reputation — combining a great drinks offering with a fun, characterful atmosphere, the kind of lively, in-the-know spot that's become a genuine favourite on a strip known for its bars.
The appeal is that combination of well-made drinks, a vibrant, characterful atmosphere and a prime Chapel Street location, ideal for a drink with friends, a date or a night out. On one of Melbourne's busiest bar strips, a spot that's nailed both its drinks and its vibe really stands out, and Three Monkeys has clearly won over a devoted following.
