Swinging gin bar with live acid jazz band on Thurs. Seasonal cocktails menu, try the Pimm's and Shave & Tonic (G&T twist). $50 haircuts are pricey but come with friendly professionalism + house beer .

I reckon of of the few legit speakeasy cocktail bars in Sydney that does everything right. Focus is on gin and they make really good cocktails with their selections too.

A hidden bar with gin of all kinds from all over the world. Ask for their full menu which is biblical in size! Great cocktails in a cosy dim lit environment. Access via the barbershop on York Street .

Awesome creative gin cocktails , loved it!

White negroni is delicious! On Fridays they play old school hip hop .

A hidden place in the heart of the city . Great choice of cocktails and spirits.

Hard to find. Go in the barbershop and up the stairs. Slide the back door . Amazing cocktails !

Eclectic bar at the back of a barber shop . Nice vibe. Live music .

How bars should be: loud , fun, solid and close to other bars : Baxter Inn after, please.
