Overview

It seems like every rooftop, garden and open-air space in Sydney has been transformed into a winter wonderland this year (not that we're complaining). And the latest venues to join the wintry pop-up trend are harbourside spots Untied and Bungalow 8, which have teamed up to bring the cosy cold weather vibes to the inner city.

Over at Bungalow 8 on King Street Wharf, a tree-lined path leads to six apres ski-inspired timber 'cabins' with plenty of blankets to keep you warm and heaps of skiing paraphernalia, too. Sip on a range of French Alps-inspired cocktails, including a honey mead-spiked iced tea, or stop by a pop-up bar dedicated to the drink of the moment: espresso martinis. Here, it's served nitro and comes with DIY optional toppings such as dark chocolate, hazelnuts, marshmallows and even fairy floss.

You can pair all this with woodfired pizzas, cherry wood-smoked hummus, plus skillets of s'mores for dessert. Each 'cabin' fits four to eight mates, and bookings are recommended.

A stone's throw away, Barangaroo's rooftop bar Untied has been transformed into a luxury ski resort. It comes complete with magnums of Champagne, absinthe-misted highballs and a new winter menu — with honey chicken wings and crème brûlée waffle cones.

Bungalow 8's Winter Wooodlands is now open and Untied's Apres Ski Bar launches on Friday, June 21.
