Design and Drink Market
Booze and boutique gifts come together for a festive arvo at The Rochester.
Overview
These days, most design markets let you peruse their goods with a drink in-hand. The Design and Drink Market, however, goes one step further — it's held inside a pub. So you know running out of alcohol won't be a problem.
The pub in question is The Rochester on Johnston Street. It will transform from boozer to boutique design market from 11am–4pm on Saturday, December 15 to host some local designers and artists. They'll be hawking things like ceramics, custom t-shirts, local honey, art and indoor plants. Basically all the things you (and hopefully your family and friends) want for Christmas.
The pub has this year had a menu makeover, so it's worth sticking around for some of Mischa Tropp's South Indian nosh, too.
