The Crafty Crane - Melbourne

This place is so sweet! In downtown Melbourne a little off the beaten path. The ambience is great, had a wonderful table outside the view of the water. Wine selection was great, food was excellent, service was excellent. Prices are super reasonable. Not overcrowded what is a plus nowadays. Stay for 3 hours and simply enjoyed a nice evening with a friend, felt very welcome and 10/10 would recommend. Will be back!

This is an amazing bar in downtown Melbourne, tucked away on a charming little street off New Haven Ave. It's the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine or some craft beers. We visited on a weekday when it wasn't too crowded, so we were able to sit right next to the bar. Scott and Rhonda were incredibly nice and welcoming, offering excellent recommendations for both beer and wine. We ordered a glass of Pinot Grigio and a flight of beers, which included Fresh IPA, Brazil Loves, Sandy Feet, and Iguana Bait. The standout was definitely the Sandy Feet, followed closely by the Fresh IPA. Overall, it's a fantastic place to unwind and enjoy a drink.

This place boasts an excellent selection of beer and wine, along with a cozy atmosphere and a wonderfully friendly owner. Located just off the main road from Downtown Melbourne, it offers both indoor and outdoor seating. The menu may be small, but the charcuterie boards and hot porches are absolutely delicious. Highly recommended!

Fantastic Evening Out... My husband and I decided to stop by Crafty Crane for a drink in the charming historic downtown of Melbourne. What a fantastic spot! Just recently opened, they offer a great variety of artisanal beers and wines, along with cheese and wooden boards to complement the beverages. The owner was incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere was cozy and inviting. I highly recommend spending an evening with a glass of wine on the deck.

Live music was great. Flatbread yummy! Really cute place! Love the skylights and decor. Wasn't sure where to park and not a large place but really lovely, set back from the main drives.
