Start the evening in the Cookie’s bar space that has a great choice of beers, and continue with some wines presented in the binder. If things are hopping along nicely, you can move to Cookie’s cocktail space to heat up the atmosphere, or have a taste of some Thai food without having to leave the building.

For those who opt for a classy date night, the City Wine Shop has a lot to offer. Close to the Parliament station, this boutique Victorian winery has an intimate and inviting atmosphere, with dark timber floors and leather bench chairs.
