• Newtown is the perfect spot for live music and cold brews, an eclectic neighbourhood with a thriving craft beer scene.
• Darlinghurst has a pretty sweet mix of wine and craft cocktail bars.

For snaps of the waterfront, head to the Shangri-La Hotel for a cocktail at Blu Bar on 36. This place does enforce a dress code, which gives you the excuse to go from beachy tourist to glam traveller and kick off your night in style.

It’s only a 4-minute walk to the famous Sydney Opera House, and you’ll also be close to some awesome spots to eat, like Portobello Caffe and the Sydney Cove Oyster Bar.
