Doo-Bop Jazz Bar

Plans have been submitted for a huge new underground jazz bar and cafe which will be known as Doo-Bop Jazz Bar located at 101 Edward Street.

Spread over two levels, the 435 square metre tenancy will house an underground level dedicated to jazz with a music stage, bar, seating/dining area and pool table.

The upper ground level will also include a smaller raised music stage as well as cafe, bar and varying types of seating options.

The new jazz bar is located in a converted warehouse building which is listed on both the local and State Heritage registers. Council have approved the plans last Thursday.

The interior design of Doo-Bop Jazz Bar is being undertaken by One Alliance Projects.

Flagship McDonalds

Meanwhile, up the road at 130 Queen Street, a development application has been lodged for a new large flagship McDonald’s Restaurant which will replace Jo Jo’s Restaurant.

Fast food giant McDonald’s plans to retrofit the former Jo Jo’s tenancy into a large 903 square metre restaurant with a dining capacity of 100. Works involve facade alterations as well as retrofitting of the existing balcony fronting Queen Street Mall and Albert Street.

Similarly to the adjacent rival Hungry Jack’s, the tenancy is located within a ‘Principal Centre Zone’ and therefore has unlimited hours of operation. The design of the McDonald’s outlet is being undertaken by Landini Associates.

Stefan Ackerie’s Jo Jo’s restaurant is being relocated to a new location on Melbourne Street which is currently under construction.

The DA number for this development is A004610220.
