Transport Hotel has likely already caught your eye — it's the bar with the yellow accents in Federation Square. In an ideal central location, it serves up everything you might need: a stellar drinks list, great food and lots of space. Depending on what you're feeling, you can hit the Transport Bar which has a great happy hour (that runs Sunday–Thursday from 10–11pm with 50 percent off selected drinks) or go large and sit down for a proper fancy meal at Taxi Kitchen. Whatever you decide, you're guaranteed to have a good time.
