Where Melbourne history meets modern hospitality. 

There’s a story behind these walls — and it starts with Abe Hickens, the 1870s boxer-turned-legend who wasn’t afraid to break a few rules in this place.

From cold beers in the Front Bar to golden hour sessions on the Rooftop, Hickens is your multi-level home for good times in the heart of Melbourne. Kick back with tank-fresh Carlton in the retro lounge, feast on pub classics, or turn things up at Abe’s Athletic Hall — arcades, sport, karaoke and all. 

A little history, a lot of fun — welcome to Hickens.

Open 7 days, 11am – late
