If a bar with a certain touch of quiet European elegance appeals, then Spleen is the place for your night out. One of the more mellow drinking establishments in this part of Bourke Street, soft jazz gently plays in the background. Find a secluded nook for a quiet conversation or wander through what seems like a maze of interconnected bars under one roof. The clientele ranges from local students to corporate types. The retro-style decor makes for a casual atmosphere, although it does get busy on weekends.
