Lyre's in Melbourne, Victoria

Teller is an all-day bar and eatery set inside a converted 1918 bank on Lygon Street in Brunswick East, and it carries one of Melbourne's deeper no-and-low drinks lists. The zero-proof menu runs five named mocktails built on real NA spirits - 'Rumour Has It' with Brunswick Aces Sapiir Diamonds gin, yuzu and pomegranate, and 'The Spritz You Miss' built on Lyre's Italian Spritz - alongside NA beers (Heaps Normal Quiet XPA, Guinness 0.0, Blackman's Zero, Capital Pacific Ale) and alcohol-free wines from Altina, Leitz and NON. NoLo Life rates its alcohol-free range five stars.

Black Pearl is a Fitzroy cocktail institution on Brunswick Street that has been named among the World's 50 Best Bars, and its bartenders extend the same craft to their alcohol-free builds. Broadsheet's best-non-alcoholic-bars guide singles it out for giving zero-proof drinks equal billing, from a savoury shaken number with lacto-fermented tomato, lemon juice, honey, ginger and Lyre's Italian Spritz to fruit-forward mocktails. Non-alcoholic beer such as Heaps Normal is also poured alongside the celebrated cocktail list.

Runner Up is a hidden rooftop bar and garden tucked above the Collingwood Yards creative precinct, reached via a small terrace and elevator off Johnston St. Alongside its cocktails it keeps a genuine no/low line-up: Heaps Normal XPA 0% and Drivers Non-Alc Lager on tap-style pours, NON7 Stewed Cherry & Coffee, a Lyre's Italian non-alcoholic spritz, and a rotating set of house mocktails. It's a relaxed, plant-strewn perch with 270-degree views over Melbourne's inner north.

This heritage bayside gastropub near Albert Park keeps a genuine booze-free option going behind the bar. Alongside alcohol-free beer and wine, Middle Park Hotel pours a zero-proof Espresso Martini built on cold-drip coffee, vanilla and Lyre's organic cane and coffee spirits, earning it a spot on Broadsheet's roundup of Melbourne's best non-alcoholic bars.
