Molly

- Melbourne Building (entry via Odgers La), 59-81 London Cct, Canberra, molly.bar

After a six-month hiatus, Molly is back at it in smart new digs in the historic Melbourne building. Where once you’d descend via an unmarked stairwell, now you head upstairs to a space that’s twice the size, but just as discreet. Barrel-aged Sazeracs, Torontos and Negronis await, chased with the likes of Scotch eggs, duck pâté and old-fashioned service. She’s just as saucy as her predecesso­r, with leather banquettes, a copper-topped bar and a grand piano for jazz night, and the Molly

Vault returns in the form of a private 55-seat bar on the mezzanine.

What to order: With over 500 whiskies in Molly’s collection, choose your own adventure.
