Was recommended by friends but was very disappointed by the establishment as a whole. The staff was incredibly disorganised, rude and unprofessional towards my group of friends who have been nothing my loyal customers for a number of years.
I had a bandage on my stomach from a recent operation which needs checking and occasionally changing at various points during the day. I had my boyfriend take me into the bathroom to check it but was kicked out by security for an unknown reason. Not only was I embarrassed by this, I was denied access to retrieve me belongings.
The entrance was filthy and looked

It's great, the music is great. The deals they have are okay aswell. My only problem is that other than the reserved booths that cost quite a lot there is only 2 tables & one/two table & chairs.
It's honestly my only downfall of the place.

Very nice decor, and friendly staff. The DJ's can be really good, but sometimes they have other DJ's that are meh. The whole atmosphere is great, and it seems that it affects attendees, since everyone I've spoken to there is really nice. There's seating at well later on in the night if you need a breather.

A really good night out. We had a team event on quiz night night during midweek. Was fun.
Staff were friendly, although found the drinks a bit limited in choice.

I went to little red pocket with some friends for their Wednesday evening trivia.
Trivia was awesome. Super fun host, 2 for 1 drink specials, lots of prizes and a free plate of chicken for all tables that booked ahead of time. The facility itself is a bit grimy.....smells like bleach. I'm guessing on non trivia nights, it's a bit of a sloppy party bar. But if that's what you are looking for, then this is your place!

I've been when my friend's won the VIP booth a few times - maybe around 9.30-10pm on a Saturday? They're always too busy for how small they are; it takes ages to get a drink because of the line. There was one time where it was like a peak hour train home. I get that it's popular but it would be better if patron numbers were controlled a bit better. As for customer service for the VIP booth, it's been slow every time and I feel that the reason is due to the sheer excess of people every time we've been. Even though service is slow, staff are friendly and we haven't had issues with drink orders.

The place was a random pick and to be honest, the place was definitely geared towards a nightclub with a DJ booth set up and wide open space for dancing. The furniture although durable, was well worn. The staff were mostly inattentive and the beers tasted watery and flat. Happy to experience it once, but I'd give it a skip.

Well hidden, it's another gem of a bar in Melbourne. Nice drinks ( a little pricey) good service, nice balcony, decent choons and some very helpful staff as I organised a function. Head out on fridays between 5-7 for their happy hours. Notable also for their tablet ordering system at tables with card swipe which is rather nifty.

My experience with Little Red Pocket was, in a nutshell, a reminder that fantastic customer service still exists.
Organising a venue for my 27th (insignificant) birthday was challenging, but the incredibly attentive staff at LRP were so friendly and helpful, that it was made so much easier.
I originally visited the venue on a Saturday night prior to my birthday - to ensure the crowd and music was to my taste. The Manager had advised me they were quite busy and after venturing inside, I had concerns that with all the patrons, my party would be forgotten/blend into the crowd and queues of thirsty

Dropped by after dinner for some drinks. Singaporean Bartender Lady was super friendly and helpful. They had some ok cocktails, and sake collection. At the time they were looking to introduce a new menu, so the menu we got was irrelevant. Will definitely go back when in Melbourne.
