Wayward

Overview

For those who have a penchant for wearing their moustaches in the Copstash/Handlebar style, Wayward is a perfect sunny afternoon spot to congregate. The Newtown watering hole's clientele consists mostly of men who share similar styles of upper lip coverage, and the women who appreciate them. Note: Moustache-less men are also welcome, but are a rare breed here.

Monterey's summer-only backyard bar offers a small selection of drinks - canned beers ($5), cider or a whiskey in a variation of styles and brands ($6 - $10), giving the place a very casual, very just-popped-over-to-the-neighbours'-for-a-beersie-in-the-sun feel. For a more extensive menu you'll have to go next door.

For a bar that's literally next to Monterey and situated on Rintoul Street, Wayward is still flying very low under the radar, which is probably due to its eccentric opening hours, which are weather- and music festival-dependant.
