4042 | Late Night Liquor

Grindlay Street's go-to for proper late-night cocktails and spirits, where the bar staff actually know what they're doing.

You'll find yourself on Grindlay Street, that stretch between the Lyceum and the Usher Hall where things get properly lively after dark. 4042 is the kind of place where you can rock up at 11pm and the night's actually just getting started—the sort of bar that takes its drinks seriously without being insufferable about it. They've clearly invested in quality spirits and someone's trained the staff well, because your cocktail won't be drowned in ice or taste like regret. It's become a proper fixture for folk who know their way around a bar and don't want to end up somewhere playing mainstream chart hits.
