Bars

Small, neighbourhood bar with an industrial feel. Great drinks, and good tunes with an outdoor courtyard and toasted sandwiches. Best place for a low-key drink and it's just at the top of Cope Street!

Really nice place for a drink and bar food. The vibe is Redfern grunge, and the fit-out is clean and modern. In the afternoon, sunlight floods the room, and at night, lights twinkle from inside. Drinks are excellent.

This 28-seater eatery is all cool concrete and blonde timber, and serves the best ramen in town. This place is always busy, so be prepared to line up. But the wait is worth it! Lots of japanese and local beers and organic wine on the menu.
