THE EVERLEIGH

This intimate cocktail bar inspired by the golden era of fine drinking is where you’ll want to cap off your day’s exploring on Gertrude Street. Hidden away, speakeasystyle (above Belle’s Hot Chicken, another go-to spot), this is – just quietly – not only one of the best bars in Melbourne, but in the world, as international awards attest. Slip into a booth in this sultry space and sip on a classic cocktail – an Old Fashioned or Moonlight, perhaps – crafted to exacting standards. theeverleigh.com
