Drinks & Nightlife
The Botanist
17 Willoughby StVery cool basement type bar - drippy candles and plants everywhere.
This is one of my favourite haunts - it's an underground whiskey bar, styled like an old speakeasy. Get there early around 7-8pm to avoid long queues to get in. It ain't cheap, but it's awesome.

This is by far my FAVOURITE place to party. It's a Japanese style bar, free Karaoke rooms, air-hocky, pool, arcade games like street-fighter... they serve late night dumplings and other yummies, open till late and have live DJ sets. Very cool vibe - no douche-bags.

A little more expensive, but lots of fresh produce. Easy dinner is a BBQ chicken for $8 if you're on a budget!
