To update my post above, I'd like to invite anyone in Melbourne to come out on Friday night. Hopefully there are places open on Good Friday!

Good morning,
It's no notice and probably a really bad week for it, but I've booked a last-minute trip to Melbourne next (Easter!) weekend and would love to catch up with you if you're in town on Friday night.
Would you like to join us for some wine tasting in the Yarra Valley?
Here's the thread in C.Buzz.
When:
- Drinks or coffee: Friday, March 21 (Good Friday) in Melbourne
- Same:QF lounge, MEL, Saturday or Sunday (or Monday morning) March 22-24
- .
- Wine tour in between, hopefully. See the thread above.
Where:
- Friday: Somewhere along Flinders St, Melbourne or not too far a walk or transit?
- Saturday: Yarra Valley / MEL lounge
- Sunday/Monday: MEL lounge?
Can you suggest a good place where the grub is good and the atmosphere interesting, not too inconveniently located to this area?
We're flying back on Qantas on Monday afternoon.
Staying in Melbourne the first night, MEL Hilton on Staturday & Sunday nights.
I should have wifi access in the Hilton, so am open to a QF lounge drink if you're there (subject to our wine trip schedule)).
OT for a second,
will many bars or restaurants be open on Good Friday night?
I've listed some wineries but need to check what may be open on Easter Saturday.
Suggestions are appreciated.
Re. QF:
Easter wasn't too bad for flight availability, a week out, for the trip, so kudos to QF and I hope we use our baggage allowance for some good bottles!
We will spend our time in the Hilton and can meet you there (and try some wine
) rather than in the QP, unless you can get us in.
