Backseat Becky's

Head down into The Westgate's lower reaches and you'll find Backseat Becky's, a properly irreverent basement bar that doesn't take itself seriously. The vibe is unapologetically fun—think dark corners, sticky floors you'd actually want, and a crowd that's here to have a laugh rather than perform for Instagram. It's the kind of place where the bartenders know what they're doing with a cocktail but won't make you feel awkward ordering a pint. You're wedged right under Queen Street's hustle, but once you're downstairs, it feels like a proper escape.
