Overview
Royal Saxon has cemented its place as a Richmond nightlife favourite by delivering the perfect mix of design-led spaces, quality drinks, and a party-ready atmosphere. The venue’s striking exterior — all sharp lines and bold materials — gives way to a warm, open interior filled with polished concrete, timber accents, and plenty of greenery.
The bar is a central focus, pouring everything from seasonal cocktails and boutique wines to an array of local and imported beers. Cocktails lean toward the fresh and approachable, with classics sitting alongside inventive seasonal specials. The wine list is well-curated, spotlighting Australian producers with a smattering of European labels, while beer lovers will find both craft and crowd-pleasing options on tap.
The spacious courtyard is a key drawcard, perfect for sunny afternoons that roll into lively nights. By the weekend, DJs take over, shifting the vibe toward an upbeat, dance-friendly energy without losing the venue’s polished edge. Royal Saxon manages to be both relaxed during the week and high-energy on weekends, making it a versatile choice whether you’re after a casual midweek drink or a big night out.
