THE TAKE

A discreet door on Clarence Street, four floors up, and then a room that looks like a library somebody moved into: arched bookshelves, ferns, a chandelier, leather booths by candlelight. One more staircase and you are on a rooftop with three hundred and sixty degrees of skyscrapers. Three hundred bottles behind the bar.

WHY IT’S WORTH IT

1Two bars in one: a candlelit library and a rooftop with the whole skyline.

2Three hundred bottles and a list that actually changes.

3It serves real food, which for a Sydney cocktail bar is unusual.
