Score context

NegroniMan (September 2026), Caroline B (May 2026), Becky H (March 2026), JandNMc (March 2026) and Mikael3065 (November 2025) praise consumed cocktails and/or drink service at 80 Collins Street. Stevenp (August 2026) and Webster27 (August 2025) describe slow drink service; the former got only one drink and the latter never received a second round. This is mostly positive but materially mixed on service, single-platform and low confidence.
