Gallon

A gallon is nearly four litres, which is about how much wine you'll be tempted to drink at this relaxed Harris Street wine bar. Obviously don't, but do get around a chilled night out consisting of a glass of pinot and a plate of crumbed soft cheese. Take a seat in the Gallon's leafy outdoor courtyard "The Stables" — which was actually home to horses back in 1870 — or prop yourself up alongside the exposed, interior sandstone brick wall.

Produce is sourced locally and a lineup of pizzas, salads and bar snacks will keep your stomach lined. Gallon is good for dates, a night out with the girls or a quiet post-work drink away from the full intensity of the CBD.
