Best places: Bars in Canberra, Australia

👍👍 Visited with a large group, Jesse and Mike were fantastic! They were really helpful & patient, explaining the varieties of whiskies they had. The atmosphere was safe, welcoming and inclusive - we had a chill time. Recommend for a night of fun!

😐 Their sponsored adds on Instagram caught my attention, as who doesn’t love a good taco washed down with a few coronas and margaritas. After being in lockdown for so long, we organised a babysitter to try out this place. Was welcomed at the door by a friendly gentleman and told to wait while I table...

👍👍 Anita did a fantastic job with my eyelash extensions. She was very friendly, very professional & I felt extremely comfortable throughout the whole process. Thank you so much Anita. You are amazing 😍

Roasted chicken was well seasoned! Roast pork’s skin was very chewy...

👍👍 The BentSpoke is a must-do destination when in Canberra. Even though I am not a beer drinker, my colleagues highly rate the brews there, and the few local ciders they serve are excellent. What gives this place five stars for me is the food. The hot chicken wings are divine, as other reviews claim....

👍👍 Great live music, warm ambience, awesome staff, good snacks and 100s of drinks to choose from. Loved my short visit with friends. Really a place to go if you are in Canberra.

Local and international acts in a subterranean live music venue, with pool tables and a beer garden.

👍👍 We’ve been meaning to come here since it opened and so glad we made it. What a wonderful dining experience, the vibe when you enter is very relaxed with nice furniture, dim lights, and good music. The service was really attentive thank you too all 3 staff who served us you were Al wonderful. The co...

😠 For myself this wasn’t a good vibe and lacked warm customer service.

Rustic pub with a terrace offering Canadian-inspired comfort food & a take-out option.

Fashionable quarters in an upmarket hotel featuring an Italian restaurant/bar & a gym.

👍👍 This is the best bar in Canberra hands down. The atmosphere is intimate and gives off a speakeasy vibe. All of the staff are so lovely and helpful. They offer the best "sitting at the bar" experience you'll ever have. Everyone is so open to sharing their knowledge and happily answered every question...

Creative, wood-fired Asian BBQ fare & cocktails in a modern venue with steel & recycled-wood decor.

Quaint, family-friendly locale with hearty pub meals and craft beers on tap, plus weekly live music.

Lodge-style joint with exposed brick, wood & taxidermy decor for cocktails, whisky & live jazz.

👍👍 Made a booking a few hours before we went, being unsure of how busy it would be. When we got there, our table was in the middle of the restaurant. I have really intense anxiety and PTSD, and forgot to add in the comments when booking to have a table that was up against a wall as I can’t sit anywhere...

Chain retailer with beauty products including makeup & skincare (plus some kiosks & Brow Bars).

👍👍 Again, Canberra showing the rest of the country how nuanced and elegant their dining scene is. I thoroughly enjoyed this experience, the restaurant is very cool, a little eclectic and very Canberra, which we love. The food was delicious, lots of great starters to accompany your main, the menu was...

👍👍 What can I say but WOW! I haven't had a place surprise me with new dishes and flavours like this in a long time. The handmade noodles were my favourite, the chewier texture and taste was superb. The savoury milk soup based dumplings was a flavour explosion I haven't had for a long time and reminded...
