Carlton VIC
Historic Pub $
This historic Melbourne pub is renowned for housing a rare 1970s black-and-white chemical photobooth, reportedly the only one of its kind found in an Australian pub. While updated for modern card payments, the vintage machine retains its original mechanical process, featuring a retro red curtain and a TV screen that allows patrons to watch their photos develop live.
Viewers generally express excitement about the venue, frequently tagging friends to share their discovery of the location. While the overall sentiment is positive, a specific recommendation was made to use cash rather than card for the photo booth services.
