Corridor

What we like about the folks at Corridor is that they're friendly and down to earth. They're just doing what they do and they're doing it well: long necks of Coopers pale for $12, simple mixers (get ‘em to do you a ginger beer with rum and limes), local wines by the glass (in red and white!)... you get the picture. That's what this new crop of small bars are about: neighbourhood joints offering a community atmosphere. Bar snacks stretch to the likes of nachos, burgers and the like. It's very easy to stay put at Corridor and lose an evening here on the upstairs deck, which houses relaxed punters shooting the breeze. Or, if it's indoor solace you're after, there's a great big Art Deco-style room filled with Chesterfield sofas and gentle lighting. So by all means, order the nachos and don't listen to us - it's all in good fun.
