Burrow into a cosy booth and feast on the visuals at Habitat, the third venture from Scott Higginbotham and Malcolm Watts (the dynamic duo behind Moose & Gibson and Leaf Espresso). A built-in living ant farm lines the concrete bar, the ever-changing myriad of tunnels viewable through clear panes of glass. Reworked railway bridge timber forms bars, walls and tabletops; strategically placed mood lighting highlights the eclectic décor.
Seasonal brews pour from repurposed fire hydrants serving as taps. Slushie cocktails and Martinis are pumped out in the garden bar, and frosty craft beers, a global wine list and aromatic Two Seasons coffee are on the go from morning through night. Add to this a well priced menu and live music on weekends, and you’ve got digs you can really settle into.
