Vaporetto Bar and Eatery
Hawthorn, Melbourne
40-50YRSThe vision for Vaporetto was inspired by many trips to Venice - a beautiful Italian part of the world and wanting to create something that embodies old school hospitality filled with warmth, generosity and charm. We were particularly drawn to Venice for the art, culture, romance, mystery, and the rich, fascinating history associated with controlling the spice trail for centuries. Venetian food is like Italian food without rules! And let’s face it, who doesn’t love Venice?

The trio has nailed the seaside brief by filling the space with marine hues. Think teal banquette seating, white painted brick walls, and aqua bar tiling laid to invoke the Mediterranean Sea.
