Van Gogh Bar
The Van Gogh Bar is located on the third level of Melbourne Central. This stylish bar draws inspiration from the works of that famous Expressionist artist as evidenced in the choice of lighting and decor. The Van Gogh Bar has a relaxed, starry ambience with the special lighting effects, six metre bar as well as the banquette and table seatings. Popular amongst vodka and cocktail enthusiasts, this is a delightful venue you will want to return to with friends.

I ventured into Rockstar Bowling a few months ago and have to say it was right up my alley. ;) (couldn't help myself, forgive me.)
My partner and I were invited to participate in a True Local event happening here and had an amazingly enjoyable night.
The bar was great with a great range if Vodkas as well as cocktails. I have to admit I wasn't sure bowling and alcohol would mix but as it turns out I think I bowled better under the influence.
The lanes were glowing and it really did have an edgy rock feel about it. Which made me feel like I could come here with friends and not feel like a dork as I would with a traditional bowling alley.
I have a broad taste in music and thoroughly enjoyed the tunes as I strutted up for my turn.
There were various other arcade style games to play also.
I had a very enjoyable night and would recommend if you enjoy a bit of healthy competition on your nights out.
I visited Rockstar as part of a group of LocalStar reviewers who were invited for a night out. The staff went to a great deal of trouble to accommodate us and were extremely friendly - they couldn't do enough for us. Me and two friends stayed until closing time and wow! Five Stars for fun, definitely! Bowling, pool, air hockey, car and bike and motorcycle video games - we had a few from the excellent and inexpensive bar and we were a bit squiffly - but MAXIMUM FUN! for sure. There's even an entertainment area and exercise/dancing classes, for a very reasonable price. We are certainly planning to go back for more! With the convenient location right in Melbourne Central, it couldn't be easier to get ...read more
Rockstar bowling... the name says it all. All the usual joys of ten-pin bowling with notes of luxury, glitz and glamour. Their spacious venue includes a function room, an area for live music out the back, and the amusements traditionally found at a bowling alley: pool tables, air hockey and various video games. However, at Rockstar bowling, you can relax on comfy couches while waiting to bowl; in fact, there are couches everywhere. The elaborate yet unobtrusive lighting and unique decor add to the stylish ambience, and visitors are just as likely to find themselves shooting pool beneath a glittering chandelier. Best of all, there is a gloriously complete vodka bar (so complete, they have a cocktails menu on their website), and skilled bar staff ready to mix - or perhaps discover? - your drink of choice. Despite all this, the prices are far cheaper than your local run-of-the-mill bowling alley. Truly amazing.
My experience with bowling is on the Wii, so I was pleasantly surprised with Rockstar Bowling. This is a fun night out with the bowling alley lit in nice coloured lighting and great music playing while you bowl, even with some bubbles floating down the alley! Must mention the Vodka Bar/Lounge area - an intimate and classy area to enjoy some quiet drinks away from the bowling lanes. The strawberry and cream infused vodka with lemonade tasted so delicious! There's also air hockey & pool tables, car racing games, etc.
