Burger Bar Crown Casino
Neil Perry's already vast hospitality empire is set to expand with the addition of R Bar, an all-day deli and bar slinging eggs and pastries at breakfast, and cocktails and caviar at night.
Opening on July 26 in the former Waiting Room site between Rockpool Bar & Grill and the lobby of Crown Towers, R Bar is Perry's answer to the classic New York-style hotel bar.

- Since we are going to crown casino we decided to grab something near there. I would describe this as a fancy burger place, the deco is nice and the area is huge. They hv a bar at the side too, so you can hv beer together with your burger. I saw that they have the sticker they are voted the best burger of the year in 2012 and 2013.

With its rounded banquettes, velvet curtains, a barrel room for aging cocktails and spirits, a deli counter, chandeliers and a light-reflecting crystal wall, it's 'an ode to the Great Gatsby era but with a Rockpool spin', says Perry.
Snacks and cocktails are the main focus. Aside from caviar, oysters, premium tinned fish, cheese and charcuterie, there's a huge selection of retro hors d'oeuvres, including finger sandwiches, devils on horseback, mortadella and asiago skewers and crab cakes. There are also bite-sized sausage rolls and beef and burgundy pie floaters.
Not hitting the spot? There are more substantial dishes too, including caesar or waldorf salads, burgers and rib-sticking sandwiches, such as the Santa Monica-inspired God Mother layered with cured meats, provolone cheese, lettuce, pickled chilli and hot sauce.
To drink, look out for negronis and manhattans aged in-house in sherry and bourbon barrels respectively. There's also a gueridon martini service that sees your choice of either gin or vodka poured and garnished tableside.
R Bar will open Mon-Fri 7am-late; Sat-Sun 8.30am-late from July 26.
Lobby, Crown Towers Melbourne, 8 Whiteman Street, Southbank.

After hanging out at Crown Casino last night, I was starving and in need of a burger, so I headed to Rockpool Bar & Grill. I’d read a bit about this burger and given the exclusive nature of the place, had high expectations.
Sitting in the bar area, I ordered the “David Blackmore’s Full Blood Wagyu Hamburger with Bacon, Gruyere Cheese and Zuni Pickle”. I was excited as I waited for the meal. Presentation and size of the burger was good, but that’s about where it ended. This was not a good burger at all. The meat was bland. The bun was buttery and like rubber. It generally lacked taste and was very disappointing.
The side of chips were just thick roasted potatoes, and consistent with the burger, lacked flavour too. Waaaaaay too over priced at $24 just for the burger, and another $12 for the chips. That’s right – $12 chips!
If you want a good burger at Crown, stick to The Merrywell!
