The Lame Duck

Step through the reflective gold door off Gertrude Street, up the stairs and past cardboard Cher at the DJ booth — you're in Fitzroy's best 70s fever dream. Wood panelling, a Billy Bass singing fish, hot pink palm trees, a Cher shrine and Phil Collins singalongs. The cocktail list features the signature Lame Fluffy Duck (gin, Aperol, egg white, lemon) and the Do You Like Pina-rita. Open Thursday to Saturday, late. One of those bars you'll be telling people about for years.
