Out of office, into Freyja. There’s a window most people overlook. From 5.30pm to 6.30pm, a shorter menu invites a different start to the evening. A glass, something small, and a moment to reset before the night begins. Oysters, croquettes, tartlets, calamari, paired with thoughtful pours. $30 after work drink and a snack menu. Tuesday to Thursday, available now.

$20 Southern Fried Chicken Burger Mondays at The General Assembly Big love for the Southern Fried Chicken Burger — and on Mondays, it’s even better.

$10 Wonki Pints at The Wine Corner | Friday 4–7pm Two kegs of Wonki have landed at The Wine Corner — and they need to go. So this Friday, swing by from 4–7pm for $10 pints and help empty the taps. Kick off the weekend the right way with a few cold ones, good company, and a very reasonable excuse to stay out a little longer. 🍻

Tuesday Steak Night at Winston’s. Steak frites and a glass of vino, $45 per person. From 5pm. Bookings recommended.

Sunday Jazz at The Brunswick Green | Evening Sessions End the week at The Brunswick Green with laid-back Sunday jazz sessions that ease you into the new week. Expect a relaxed mix of emerging and established artists, warm-room energy, and an easygoing crowd — the perfect soundtrack for slowing down, resetting, and curing the Sunday scaries.

Saturday Jazz at Lido Jazz Room | 8–10pm Saturday nights at Lido Jazz Room are made for listening. From 8–10pm, this cosy room inside the cinema complex hosts rotating quartets and refined live performances — a polished, intimate jazz experience built for sitting back, settling in, and soaking it all up.

Friday Jazz at Paris Cat Jazz Club | Late Sessions (Varies) Fridays belong to Paris Cat Jazz Club, where live jazz slips into the weekend from late sessions onward. A moody, basement-style hideaway in the heart of the CBD, it delivers intimate performances, low lighting, and that unmistakable “you had to be there” energy — iconic, in-demand, and always worth booking ahead.

Thursday Jazz at Young Hearts From 7pm Thursdays ease into the night at Young Hearts with The Jazz Associates, playing from 7pm onwards. A smoother, contemporary jazz session unfolds inside a warehouse-style space surrounded by rotating art and low-lit atmosphere — an easygoing midweek soundscape designed for lingering, listening, and unwinding into the weekend.

Wednesday Jazz at The Rooks’ Return, 8:30–11pm Midweek settles into something special at The Rooks’ Return, where The Rookies take over every Wednesday from 8:30–11pm. This is jazz at its most intimate — raw, connected and community-driven — with standout local musicians shaping a night that feels as much about the room as it is about the music.

Tuesday Jazz at The Toff in Town from 11:30pm Late nights belong to The Toff in Town, where NHT All Stars take over from 11:30pm every Tuesday. A true late-night institution, these sessions are raw, spontaneous and electric — the kind of jazz that feels unrepeatable, shaped by the room, the crowd and the moment.

Monday Jazz at Bar 303, 7–11pm Start the week right at Bar 303 with Jasshub, a Monday night staple in Northcote’s creative heart. From 7–11pm, expect loose, colourful jam energy, spontaneous improvisation and a mix of regulars and musicians shaping the room in real time — the kind of night where anything can happen and usually does.

Available Tuesday to Friday from 12–2.30pm, the dish features wood-grilled eye fillet finished with whipped anchovy butter, topped with a fried hen’s egg and served with thin-cut potato crisps. Rich, smoky and deeply savoury, it’s a generous take on a Portugues...
