The best bars and cafés Australia

Lounge bar/restaurant very class, who's who from Sydney super connected to meet friends before going to a box on Friday and Saturday evening.

Located at the end of Story Bridge, not far from the Gabba (Brisbane's main stadium, where cricket and AFL teams compete), this legendary pub lives to the rhythm of the matches that bring the country to life. Whether you're looking for a trendy bar or a peaceful beer garden, the atmosphere varies throughout the day to suit all tastes. You can have lunch, order fries, sample pastries or opt for a more classic dish like beef tenderloin. The service is fast, the staff friendly and the food more than adequate! Very simple, very good!

Hotel, bar and restaurant located in front of the beach. The rooms are pleasant and some offer beautiful views of the Indian Ocean. Back at the hotel after the beach, let yourself be tempted by a drink facing the sea at the Verandah Bar or by one of the many cocktails to sip at the posh Beach Club bar, which is open all summer and only on weekends in winter. There are often DJs. It's a really nice place in a beautiful setting, a must-see on your visit to Cottlesloe's waterfront. It can be crowded, you can reserve.

This typically Australian bar-pub-bistro is very popular and known for its numerous beers and ciders (more than 20), its steaks and its seafood. We like the place for its rustic decoration. Spending a game night there allows you to experience a unique atmosphere. And notice to the amateurs, there may be the best wood-fired pizzas in town! Don't miss the different schnitzels that made the reputation of this place!

L'Excelsior is the kind of pub that combines a very diverse fauna. Good beer. Perfect location for a Friday night!

This is where the employees of the City meet after their long working day.

A bar where every evening there is a good atmosphere. The prices of the drinks are reasonable, and there is no right of entry. Relaxed atmosphere and international music programming.

With deceptively South American iconography, several bar areas decorate the place, enough to please all desires (quiet, dancing...) and all audiences. The crowd is mixed: gays, lesbians and straights. Nice for a drink or even dancing on the^1st floor. Best: Fridays and Saturdays after 9pm. In summer, enjoy the super rooftop (open from 3pm from Monday to Thursday and from 12pm from Friday to Sunday). You can have a drink, admire the sunset, have a brunch, dance, listen to concerts and DJ sets...

One of the best Irish pubs in Sydney. Especially on Thursday evening when the dance trail downstairs is open.

A bar that celebrates the simple pleasures of life, bread and good wine.

Eloise answers his prayer. This bar serves wine but also brandy, cocktails, beers and other Australian and European spirits.

Located near the SouthBank station and in a building built in 1889, Little Big House is a great place to enjoy the night in Brisbane.

The Steyne is an iconic landmark in Manly and, more generally, in the upscale, residential Northern Beaches area of Sydney's north, as the name suggests. The brick building was constructed in the ^mid-19th century, but has since been rebuilt and renovated. The Steyne is actually quite a huge complex, comprising a hotel, several bars and restaurants.

A small hipster coffee shop where the inhabitants of Alice meet in the morning, right next to the cinema. You will taste a cup of DuYu coffee, organic and roasted in Alice Springs. A few options for munchies, including their variously flavored toast (we loved the ricotta, fig, barn syrup and pecan!). Locally designed T-shirts and bags for sale. Just a step away, the pastries of the Bakery which became a local institution in a few years after having started with a stand on the market (unfortunately Australian prices in force!)
