We all know that Sports bars in Melbourne are not hard to come by. However, an eSports bar is said to be something very different and could possibly be a gamechanger.
eSports
What are eSports and how do they work? Well, eSports are electronically simulated sports particularly simulated by video gaming systems. What happens is, during an eSporting event, professional video gamers are squared up against each other. People at the eSports bar then place bets on the team they feel will win, just like in real sports betting situations.
GG EZ eSports Bar
Lachlan McAllister, the owner of the GG EZ bar on Queen street, says that the bar is set to stay open late and hold a fun and light atmosphere. He further goes on to say that this is like a sports bar, although, you would be watching eSports on TV and enjoying drinks with good company.
McAllister clarifies that this is not a gaming bar, people cannot play games here. However, they can sit and watch eSports. He states that eSports are a great form of entertainment and that it’s well overdue that it gets its own venue.
Setting the Scene at GG EZ eSports Bar
Let us set the scene for you, when walking through the GG EZ eSports bar. You can expect to see pieces of wall art depicting different gaming leagues including ‘Overwatch’ and ‘Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds’, courtesy of Melbourne artist Justine McAllister.
Catering to the needs of all their patrons, the menu is yet to be finalised, they intend on providing an array of alcoholic bubble teas to suit to the quirky and unique atmosphere that this bar brings.
McAllister informs his patrons to expect a combination of favourites and up and coming teams when it comes to the matter of streaming games. Featured will be big players such as:
- League of Legends
- Dota 2
- CS: GO (Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
- Hearthstone
- Smash Melee
- Smash 4

McAllister states that the reason eSports is so compelling is that they are the games that we have played and we can see others play them at a far higher level.
