From the exposed brick walls and low-hanging lights to the penny farthing suspended from the ceiling, this West End Brisbane bar feels like a step back in time. It’s all about whisky at Cobbler, with more than 300 bottles sourced the world over - knowledgeable bartenders will climb ladders to reach unusual brands that can either be drunk straight or in one of their classic concoctions.

Date nights are an easy win here, as along with intimate leather sofas and big barstools for knocking knees, there’s table football in the upstairs room. Our favourite part? Margarita Mondays kick the week off to a great start with well-muddled tipples coming in at only $10 - just don’t blame us if you’re late for work on Tuesday.
