Melbourne Bars - Best St Kilda Bars

St Kilda was once a seaside resort for genteel Melbournians. In the 1960's and 70's it took on a seedier edge, but today it exudes a heady dose of cosmopolitan cool and is treasured for its independent vibe. On the popular English Backpacker trail this area is crammed with bars, pubs and clubs that cater for all. This list covers all aspects of the drinking spectrum - seedy local bars to large, touristy venues.
