Shabooh Shoobah

Shabooh Shoobah is a wine bar located in Brunswick West, Victoria.

The bar is named after INXS's third album and is housed in an old butcher shop. The interior is split into two sections by an archway, with one side featuring plush red banquettes and the other side featuring high bar stools arranged around a retro-light-strung bar with a prominent turntable and vinyl-stacked shelves. The venue has a mature style, with a chill neighborhood vibe, and it is the sort of place where you might have to step over a pooch reclining next to the roadside tables to order your next round. The wine list at Shabooh Shoobah is minimal, with a focus on natural and minimal intervention wines. The bar also serves pre-mixed cocktails and simple snacks. The venue has a lo-fi atmosphere, with a studiously low-key approach to its design. The double-fronted space has given the team scope to create two distinct spaces, with tables, chairs, and red banquettes.
