What a night it was. The second annual Boothby Best Bars Victoria Awards took place last night at Pearl Diver Cocktails & Oysters in Melbourne, with some of the states best bartenders and bar owners in attendance.

It is always an honour and a pleasure to put these awards on, and to see bartenders from the bars on the top 50 all come together in one room to celebrate the best of what the industry can do — it’s such a privilege to be a part of that. Thank you to all who came down and celebrated with us — you made it a memorable night!

You can get a look at all of the action below, and you can see the full list of the Boothby Best Bars Victoria Top 50 here.


And don’t forget — entries into the Boothby Drink of the Year Awards close Friday 11 October — that’s this week! Get your entries in now at boothby.com.au/drinkoftheyear asap.
