Covert Cocktail Club
Covert Cocktail Club

Once upon a time in 2016, Matt Levy, founder of Covert Cocktail Club, hosted a secret speakeasy as an intimate place for strangers to gather in his home. The only way to find out about it was via word of mouth. No address was given, the only clue being a sign placed in the window, “Cocktails Here”. A lot of people thought it was pretty cool, even before The New York Times wrote about it. But that was all pre-pandemic, and this is a new era. Liberated from the confines of a single location, Covert Cocktail Club now brings the speakeasy right to your door—be it at your home, office, bar mitzvah, dinner party, bachelor/ette party or anywhere you choose!

WOODSIDE ROOMS & TERRACE (Ground Floor) The hotel’s Woodside rooms and terrace are its main meeting and events space, located on the ground floor facing South Wharf Promenade, the Yarra River and the city beyond. Designed in keeping with Pan Pacific Melbourne’s stylish interiors, the event spaces use warm timbers and bold metal features to reflect the tall ship and wharfing industry the hotel’s location was originally home to. The space is flooded with natural light from its floor to ceiling windows, and can be used as four individual meeting rooms and a large terrace, or as one seamless indoor/outdoor space of over 400m2. As one space, Woodside ballroom and terrace can host up to 300 guests for a cocktail event, 140 guests for a sit-down dinner and 220 guests for a theatre style event. Individually, the rooms can be setup in boardroom, classroom, theatre or u-shape styles. The Woodside rooms are accessed beyond the hotel’s dramatically-designed restaurant. A private pre-function area offers views into the semi-open kitchen. Along with the heated undercover terrace, these spaces make perfect breakout areas to the meeting rooms. The technology is modern, flexible, simple to use, and most importantly reliable. BOARDROOM (Ground Floor) At 24m², one wall of this intimate room overlooks South Wharf Promenade’s heritage sheds from full height windows, and another features a striking artwork by renowned Melbourne-based Spanish artist Dani Marti. The room has a 10-seater boardroom table and a wall-mounted flat screen for presentations. RIVER ROOM (Fourth Floor) At 28m², this is a stylish space designed to impress. With a rectangular boardroom table and Herman Miller chairs, windows that frame the city skyline and a mounted flat screen TV ideal for presentations, its location on the fourth floor beside the hotel’s expansive Executive Lounge gives it a private, exclusive feel.
