Pause&nbsp;Bar&nbsp;is a little Carlisle St oasis in the Balaclava desert. Self-described as 'cavernous', it offers a space that is ripe for a party that booms. Everything about this venue shouts 'good time'. Its walls are painted teal and khaki stripes.&nbsp;It&nbsp;features 'banoffi pie' on its&nbsp;bar&nbsp;menu.&nbsp;It's Moroccan inspired. Fun. Funky.The beer and wine list is&nbsp;&nbsp;rotating and features a range of local boutique brands,&nbsp;as well as all the favourites. It's very much a classic affair with the cocktails as well &ndash; the Wrong Island Ice Tea is the&nbsp;bar's pride and glory. As mentioned, the&nbsp;bar&nbsp;menu is particularly outstanding. If you need something to line your stomach after that accidental third martini, how does marinated feta sound? Haloumi pockets anyone? A lamb and fig curry should do the trick, right?The interiors are novel -&nbsp;a wonderful mix of textures and colours that will have you humming&nbsp;'Arabian Nights'&nbsp;under your breath. The venue can comfortably accommodate&nbsp;parties of up to 100.Nestled&nbsp;underneath Balaclava train station,&nbsp;Pause&nbsp;Bar&nbsp;is as accessible as it is exciting (and delicious).
