The Flamin Galah

This bar never seems to be full during the day, I have been once to see a band… not a bad venue for such an event, the soundsystem was suited for the smallish size of this bar, and the indie covers the band played were done very well. I spoke to one of the bar staff and found out that they have different unsigned bands on (mainly of the modern indie/​rock elk) every Friday and Saturday night. The bar seems to have a very friendly set of regulars that are very fitting of the renowned Aussie laid back nature, you will not find you dressed up bling kings in here! they offer a wide range of foreign beers, wines, spirits and cocktails, and obviously well and lesser known Aussie brands — giving a truly authentic drinking experience!
There is also an open mic night for genuine artists on a Sunday, I think I will be down to check that out next!

It’s impossible not to say the name of this restaurant without a thick aussie accent. Just impossible. And it makes me laugh every time. Galaaaaaar. Hmmm. Clearly I need to get a life.
I’m not the biggest fan of theme pubs and bars, especially those dedicated to Antipodeans. Perhaps I just spent too much time in London, or with Aussie friends who forced me to drink at Walkabout. Luckily though, this bar seems to be more about the atmosphere, cheap drinks and good theme nights which makes it popular with the kids/​the students. On the weekends they welcome live music, and during the week there’s poker night and x-​box tournaments. Not for me, but I can see the appeal.
