The Famous Blue Raincoat is a lounge style bar in South Kingsville, a postage stamp of a suburb in Melbourne’s increasingly popular inner west between Yarraville and Williamstown. With fabulous food and wonderful wine to nourish the body and fantastic art to nourish the soul. Games to play for amusement, books to read for quiet contemplation and music to wash away the dust of the day. The Raincoat is your home away from home.
An eclectic mix of Parisian bohemia, Indian flavours and New Orleans grooves. Wether inside or out, sitting on the couch by the fire or under the shade of the willow tree in the courtyard, the Famous Blue Raincoat is your place. Somewhere to feel at home and relax. Bring the kids, bring a friend or just yourself. Be part of our family for a while. But what does the name mean. Well it’s the name of a song by Leonard Cohen. Imagine that, a restaurant named after a song.
