Company Bar

You'll find Company Bar tucked away on Richmond Street in the city centre, and it's exactly the kind of place that rewards people who aren't after gimmicks or Instagram backdrops. Walk in and you're greeted with that reassuring vibe of a bar that takes itself seriously without being pretentious about it—think well-dressed staff who know their way around a spirit measure and customers who are there because they want a proper drink, not because they've read about it on TikTok. The cocktail list shows real craft here; you're getting drinks made with actual thought rather than just whatever's trendy this month. It's the sort of spot where regulars prop up the bar on a Tuesday and business types swing by after work, all coexisting without anyone making a fuss about it. Not overly flashy, not trying too hard, just competent and unpretentious.
