There's heaps of cosy pubs; good ones can be found in the inner Melbourne suburbs, around Richmond, Carlton, Brunswick, North Melbourne, Fitzroy, you just have to find one that suits, though I can't speak for the outer subs, I'm sure they all have something you can go for a quiet drink with your partner or a few friends.
The influx of large Irish and English pubs a few years ago brought a touch of home with them. Some of these pubs have cosy little alcoves in them where you can sit for hours, though not on Friday or Saturday nights.
I'll be making my yearly pilgrimage to the Charles Dickens in May to watch the FA cup, a night you just can't spend at home.
In my opinion, Melbourne has taken over from Sydney as a great place for inner city bars; Friday after work head to Meyers place or any similar little side streets for a good crack and a bit of fun.
