Accessible through a discreet entrance in Melbourne’s 'smallest laneway,' this loft-style venue is perfect for private events that call for an elevated yet intimate atmosphere. Guests ascend the stairs into a warmly lit, open-plan area, where mid-century furnishings and brass-edged tables offer a stylish and comfortable setting ideal for mingling and conversation. With ample seating and a feature wine cabinet stocked with both local and international varietals, Aster provides a refined backdrop that feels both sophisticated and approachable.

The layout of Aster encourages natural flow and interaction, making it well-suited for gatherings focused on connection, from personal celebrations to corporate events. Music plays a key role in shaping the ambience, with a curated selection of deep grooves and eclectic tracks setting a relaxed tone.

The attentive front-of-house team, led by seasoned hospitality expert Manny Platsis, adds an element of welcoming warmth, ensuring that every guest feels at ease.
