Abbotsford Nightlife: Late-Night Bars and Venues

Correction (4 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 4 October 2026, and every price was copied from the page it was published on.

This page answers one question: where do you go out late in Abbotsford? It covers seven places, all in Abbotsford, made up of bars, pubs, a brewery and a tea house that lists late hours. Plan the night around the hours, then work backwards from closing time.

Every closing time below comes from the venue’s own site or from the Australian Good Food Guide, and each line says whose. Where two sources disagree, we say so rather than pick a winner.

We could not find a published cover charge or last-entry rule for any of the seven, so none is printed here. Call ahead, and sort your trip home before the first drink.

Lulie Tavern — 225 Johnston Street, Abbotsford VIC 3067

Lulie Tavern’s own site lists Thursday to Saturday as noon to 1am. Monday and Tuesday run 4pm to 11pm, and Wednesday and Sunday close at 11pm. The site says it is dog friendly and that the Full Moon Fever rooftop bar is open every day. It also says it offers vegetarian and vegan-friendly options.

The strip: Lulie Tavern and Mikey’s Bar are both on Johnston Street, so you can plan a two-stop night without leaving the street.

Mikey’s Bar — 268 Johnston Street, Abbotsford VIC 3067

Mikey’s Bar lists Friday and Saturday as 4pm to 1am on its site. Wednesday and Thursday run 4pm to 11pm, Sunday runs 2pm to 10pm, and Monday and Tuesday are closed. The site prints a daily happy hour, 4pm till 6pm. In that line it shows $10 pints and a $12 Espresso Martini.

On the menu (copied from mikeys.bar on 4 October 2026):

  • pints: $10
  • Espresso Martini: $12

The run sheet: Be there for the 4pm happy hour its site prints, then build the rest of the night around the listed 1am Friday and Saturday close.

The Vic Bar — 281 Victoria Street, Abbotsford VIC 3067

AGFG lists The Vic Bar as closed Monday, open Tuesday to Thursday from 4pm to midnight, and open Friday and Saturday from 4pm to 1am. Its Sunday entry reads two different ways in that listing, so check before you plan a Sunday. AGFG also tags it with disabled access, functions and pet friendly.

Get home: The listed Friday and Saturday close is 1am, so lock in a safe, legal way home before you head out.

Friendly Societies Hotel — 226 Langridge Street, Abbotsford VIC 3067

The Friendly Societies Hotel’s own site lists Friday and Saturday as 12pm to 12:30am. Tuesday and Wednesday run 4pm to 11pm, Thursday runs 12pm to 11pm, Sunday runs 12pm to 10pm, and Monday is closed. We could not find a published menu or prices for it.

Your night if: you want a pub that lists a half-past-midnight finish on Friday and Saturday, with an earlier Sunday close of 10pm.

The Aviary — 271 Victoria Street, Abbotsford VIC 3067

AGFG lists The Aviary as 4pm to 11pm Tuesday to Thursday, 4pm to 1am on Friday and 12:00 PM to 1:00 AM on Saturday. Sunday and Monday are shown as closed. AGFG tags it with a bar, alfresco dining, child friendly, pet friendly, free wifi and vegan options. OpenStreetMap carries a plainer 12:00-01:00 tag, so a quick call before you go is worth it.

Cover / last entry / ID: We could not find a published cover charge or last-entry time for The Aviary, so ask before you commit to a late start.

Carlton Brewhouse — 24 Thompson Street, Abbotsford VIC 3067

Carlton Brewhouse’s contact page lists Tuesday as noon to 4pm and Wednesday and Thursday as noon to 10pm. Friday and Saturday run noon to 11pm, and Sunday and Monday are closed. A different line in its page description reads differently, so check hours. Its site says it is dog and family friendly and lists complimentary pool, darts, Nintendo Switch, table tennis and board games. Brewery Tours & Vouchers start from $30pp, the site says.

On the menu (copied from carltonbrewhouse.com.au on 4 October 2026):

  • Brewery Tours & Vouchers: $30

The run sheet: Treat this as the early start to a bigger night, since the listed Friday and Saturday close is 11pm.

Tokyo Hookah Bar & Tea House — 311A Victoria Street, Abbotsford VIC 3067

Tokyo Hookah Bar & Tea House lists 3.30pm to 1am, seven days, on its own site. That site also prints pick-up and delivery on the same hours. Its menu shows the ORIGINAL BEEF BURGER at $10.50 and the GRILLED CHICKEN BURGER at $11.50. The site footer carries an older year, so check the menu is current.

On the menu (copied from tokyobar.com.au on 4 October 2026):

  • ORIGINAL BEEF BURGER: $10.50
  • GRILLED CHICKEN BURGER: $11.50
  • VEGGIE BURGER: $12.50
  • FISH & CHIPS: $14.50

The strip: Victoria Street holds this place, The Aviary and The Vic Bar, so one street covers three stops.
