We dropped by Garden State Hotel on a Monday night and loved its relaxed vibes. Our visit was even more enjoyable as we managed to snag a cozy table next to the fireplace. They boast an impressive selection of cocktails, and I am a fan of its gin-based drinks. We ordered the Southern Fried Chicken and Salt & Pepper Calamari, which were full of flavour and great for sharing. It's a great spot for after-work drinks with its convenient CBD location and buzzing atmosphere on Friday nights.
