Miccy Zee - 31 July to 10 August
Jul 31, 2025 - Aug 10, 2025
For 11 days only, The Exhibitionist Bar will transform. Inspired by Bleach* artistic Director Michael Zavros’ work Miccy Zee 2024, this is a pop-up that fuses contemporary art, Greek culture and cheeky nods to the fast-food culture we have all come to know and love. At Miccy Zee’s the soft serve machine will be running all day (and night), think baklava sundae’s, tzatziki martini’s, charcoal fired oregano and lemon chicken. Ouzo and Souvas for days. Limited edition items will be popping up every day.

A little bit pretentious for what it is. Staff were nice but it all felt like an attempt to make the menus sounds fancier than they were. Food was fine but fairly generic despite the attempt to sound elevated - for example the burger was just a cheese burger but was described as something a bit much. Cocktails were not overly appealing. Wine was fine.

The venue is lovely with amazing views. However the waiter forgot our order and had to come out again and ask us and the. We we reordered drinks he totally forgot and my husband had to go in and order agin at the counter. Nice guy but bring a notebook if you can’t remember orders, it’s a small venue so you need to be on the ball. Food was fine but not amazing.

It’s World Gin Day and we spent a fabulous hour watching the sunset while sipping on cocktails. Mine was a Breakfast Martini - Beefeater 24 Gin, Cointreau, Marmalade and Lemon. Delish!! Enjoyed some Hot Mixed Nuts and some Fries that were hot and well seasoned. We sat outside and noticed the temperature dropping as the sun went down. If you’re there in Winter and sitting outside, take a jacket/coat.

Fantastic location, view, food and drinks. Despite a reservation and we had a show to go to we were not seated for 20 mins and then had to grab staff to take an order. It was a busy night, but when you have a time restriction we had to rush eating. The staff were very nice however and the food was very tasty
