The Chesterfield Attic Bar

The Chesterfield Attic Bar

Much to the dismay of gentlemen across this fair city, this former smoking room and chess club is no longer used for either of those activities. To the delight of many others, however, it is now a thriving hub of intimate private functions. The Attic is artfully stuffed with Chesterfield couches, antique furniture and refurbished heritage features. Located on the second floor, the space offers extra privacy from the rest of the venue and a private bar. The room is perfect for client meetings, team building and networking cocktail functions.

A group of us 15+ went in for lunch. Unfortunately, this place is only for the aesthetic and atmosphere & drinks. They’ve got a great selection & flavourful drinks. All the lunches received, lamb bowl, steak, poke, fish and chips all lacked salt & flavour. Null. Their mojitos were soo good though.

After wandering around the local streets, I stumbled across the ArtHouse Hotel to the sound of some live music and decided to pop in. I ended up in the aptly named Rabbit Hall, part of the Rabbit Bar. The neon sign out the back could do with a rethink — it looks a bit more like it belongs to a strip joint than a bar — but once inside it was a good surprise. I happened to land on Wings Wednesday, which was a win. A quick drink and a plate of wings made for a great quick dinner. The food was tasty and well-priced for what it was, and the drink went down a treat. The atmosphere was warm, if a touch on the dark side, with plenty of charm for anyone who likes historic architecture and old-school style venues. The live music added to the mood, though it wrapped up a little earlier than I would have liked. All in all, a solid spot for a casual feed and a drink with character. Four stars from me.

Such a grand location for a drink and light bite to eat. Was so glad to have walked into this bar. Such a high ceilings and the bar was beautiful. A great place to have a drink with some very beautiful decor to admire around you. We were just leaving as some live music was starting up as we had somewhere else to be - but would love to return and catch the place with some music. We were enjoying this drink in the Rabbit Hole on the ground floor of this establishment. There are other levels to explore. so maybe next time

Great space! Nice atmosphere, drinks are at city prices $$$ !! but the food is good value and good quality. Nice spot to catch up before a show at the State Theatre

Great place to enjoy some Asian food with your mates or work colleagues. Quiet on a weekday night . So comfortable. Food is not too expensive and quite ok
