The cocktail is king at this speciality bar that says no to bubbly, wine and beer, and a big yes to mixed drinks – especially those made with freshly squeezed fruit juices and premium alcohol. But before you sigh and say, ‘Not another one of those bars,’ consider this: it’s new, fresh and still relatively hipster-free. Housed in what used to be a caretaker’s lodge, this 30-seater boasts works by local artists hanging on the walls and a baby grand piano (complete with singer) parked in a corner. It won’t be long before this upmarket neighbourhood bar becomes the latest spot to see and be seen – so go now.

Drinks $16-$20.
