Juni

Last updated June 10, 2026

Open until midnight every night, this CBD izakaya-inspired spot offers a late-night option that’s rare in central Melbourne. Juni follows a minimalist Japanese aesthetic, with polished concrete, dark wood and subtle lighting setting the tone.

The compact menu favours local produce and clean technique: cured fish, grilled skewers, a sake-glazed scallop. Drinks are built around high-quality sake, low-intervention wines and cocktails that mirror the kitchen’s delicate precision.

We’d take the bar seats for a quiet solo dinner or slide into a corner for a longer session with friends. The atmosphere suits both.
