Johnny’s Green Room, Roof terrace restaurant and bar in Carlton, Australia.
Johnny's Green Room is a rooftop on Level 2 of Lygon Street designed with Italian beach club style and a semi-retractable roof. The space holds around 260 guests with wood furnishings, open fireplaces, and city skyline views available year-round.
The venue underwent major renovations designed by Dion Hall, transforming it into a Tuscan-style space with terracotta and zinc materials. The use of natural materials reflects Mediterranean coastal village design and shapes how the place looks today.
The name references a former owner and the place has become known for serving Italian-style food in a relaxed setting. Diners gather at shared tables on the rooftop, experiencing the casual social culture typical of Mediterranean seaside establishments.
The place is accessible by lift from King and Godfree Lane, making it easy to reach. Street parking is limited, so it makes sense to explore other options or use public transport.
The place serves artisanal soft-serve gelato in flavors like fior di latte and strawberry with pepper granita. Live music from Hope St Radio adds to the experience and connects it to the local music scene.
