“Martinis are the name of the game at this psychedelic Enmore Road cocktail bar from the Cantina OK! team.”

“Newtown. The lefty central of Sydney. Filled with the garish stench of breweries, pubs, pokies, pool, gentrification and 18-year-olds from Sydney University as they stumble home trashed on a Tuesday night. Where psychotic, Christian, bald headed mouldy-men, screaming in the name of Jesus, sometimes like to march, and the local BWS showcases a year round pride sign: BWYasssss.”

“It’s high time we raised a glass to Sydney’s embattled bar scene: it’s weathered everything from lockout laws, to lockdown, from constant CBD roadworks, to (almost) unrelenting rain. But this is its beauty: after every blow, it emerges, bright, and strong and ready to pour out another.”

“There's no question: 2022 was the year of the signature drink in Sydney. Be it martinis, Negronis or fragrant sake, Sydney now has a bar dedicated to it, found in world-class hotels, squeezed into 11-seat suburban spots, or under the watchful eyes of a giant golden prawn (yep...).”

“From the place to be when the sun goes down to a hot new rooftop diner from a genre-pushing chef and a late-night haunt specialising in Martinis, here’s how to tackle a night out in Sydney.”

“Put these brand new bars on your list this weekend”

“You can't spell optimistic without olive.”

“We toast an intergalactic Newtown bar that’s big-upping the Martini, pair brews with prawn toast at an inner-west warehouse devoted to a former PM, and sip classic cocktails beneath a 400-tonne clocktower. Here’s why it's been an outstanding six months for Sydney’s drinks fans.”

““Really, we just opened the bar we wanted to see in the area. We hope it brings joy to the inner west," Mucho Hospitality Group Marking Director Daisy Tulley says.”

“Journey to the final frontier for the perfect Martini.”

“The team behind the world’s 23rd best bar turns its attention to that cocktail-lounge staple, the Martini – and the results are as out of this world as you might expect.”
