Honkas Bar + Eats
If you were hankering for a gorgeous mid afternoon tipple on a sunny Saturday afternoon post-market, Honkas has you covered. From 2pm-5pm every Friday and Saturday the pan-Asian eatery offers an extensive menu of $10 cocktails.
Also, if you wake up on Sunday with a ruddy hangover, may we suggest partaking in their $35 yum cha special. For 90 minutes you’ll be privy to free-flowing food. The yum cha special also offers beers for $6 and bloody mary’s for $7, nothing quite like a bit of hair of the dog to ease a throbbing head.

Darlo Bar
My personal favourite bar in the area, yeah I know it’s technically Darlinghurst but we’re birds of a feather. Pop into The Darlo from 5pm-6pm between Monday and Wednesday and you’ll be privvy t0 $5.50 Schooners of VB, Carlton, Pure Blonde, Reschs and Leftbank wines. Darlo lets you order whatever food you like to the pub which, quite frankly, rules. Order a coupla Manoosh pizzas between friend and you’ve got yourself an award-winning evening.

The antithesis to all the shitty Mexican food Australia has on offer, Chula is truly divine.
