Super Whatnot is located in Burnett Lane in the middle of the CBD. Surrounded by alternative EMO youth and hobos salvaging cigarettes it’s the perfect destination for a serious lane way bar. Housed in the loading dock of an abandoned beauty college, it is a place to retreat from the glossy finishes of the shopping frenzy in adjacent streets. With 4 meter ceiling height the space feels more generous than the 100 m2 footprint and offers three distinct seating options. A sunken lounge with barn door style window spanning 3 meters and supported by a walking caster wheel, mid-level bar featuring in situ concrete bar top above hexagonal mosaic tiles and a loft verandah of loose outdoor garden furniture amidst lush plant life and assorted curiosities.
