The Inchcolm's Couples Martini Masterclasses

Overview

As well as offering Brisbanites a mighty nice place for a staycation in the middle of Spring Hill, The Inchcolm is home to its own enticing bar that takes its cues from 1920s Parisian salons. That's reason enough to stop by, even if you aren't spending the night; however, make a date of it to celebrate the supposedly most romantic evening of the year and you and your partner can leave with a lifelong skill.

That handy talent: making martinis, whether you like them shaken or stirred. For one night only — on Monday, February 14, of course — the venue is hosting couples martini masterclasses. If cocktails, grazing boards and learning something new are the way to your other half's heart, consider your Valentine's Day sorted.

The sessions run at 6pm and 8pm, cost $179 for two, and include a run-through of how to make a heap of The Inchcolm Bar's martinis — it's known for them — including both classics and secret concoctions.

Bookings are required, and you obviously know where to stay if you do want to make a whole night of it.
