What would double your happiness in a city bar? A cocktail list to make Bryan Brown shake in his martini glass? How about a venue that isn't suffocated by the weight of Friday night suits? A consistently decent soundtrack of obscure hip hop gems? Or an interior with cute weird looking people saluting missiles and doing other weird communist sort of stuff?
These may not have been your answers, but we posed the question so run with us. Double Happiness is quite easily one of the best bars in the city. Not to be confused with Double O which is a whole nother kettle of stinking fish.

About
ThreeThousand is a subcultural guide to Melbourne, published daily and fired by email weekly. It is compiled by an amorphous gaggle of Melbourne writers, stylists, designers and photographers who all like huddling under that big umbrella we like to call creativity. Without editorial independence ThreeThousand has nothing. All editorial you read is featured because it's worth it - not because it's paid for.
