Father's Office

The drinks pour freely at this prohibition-inspired speakeasy bar. Located in the heart of the city overlooking the State Library, Father's Office has become one of the most popular spots for a drink after work since opening its doors in 2014. Alongside the hard stuff, there's decadent American burgers, wings and more, all of which have helped it become a hit. Combined with the art-deco dining room, it makes for a stylish and tasty setting to catch up with co-workers.

You can't have a CBD bar without the happy hour to match, and Father's Office doesn't miss a beat with a whole host of drinks to choose from. There's a selection of $12 cocktails, $6 bottled beer and schooners, cut-price jugs and much more. The daily happy hour runs between 5–7pm and 8–10pm, as well as all-day Sunday, so there's plenty of opportunity to get a drink on a steamy day.
