A drink with the girls
There's nothing like a drink with the girls. I mean, of course everyone loves their significant other and this is certainly not a man-hating manifesto, but settling down with a drink and your closest girlfriends to deconstruct your life for a couple of hours is crucial to maintaining a certain level of mental health.
Here's a selection of our favourite spots in which to catch some girl time.

Cafe Lounge
Darlinghurst
|
This space oozes a warm jazz-club feel, complemented by a retro organ and DJ decks, a cocktail bar awash with red light and the odd work of art. Greenery and decking give the open courtyard a backyard feel, and the laidback table service is hospitable. The crowd is trendy but unpretentious.

Surry Hills
|
Licensed to a real Hollywood star (Doris Goddard), this unique pub has '70s cinema carpet and rough-around-the-edges charm. Come here if you're sick of mod designer pubs with sterile renovations.
