50 Fifty

Bar 50 Fifty is the downstairs, I guess adult, counterpart to Rockies’ Bar. As Rockies is on the first floor, Bar 50 Fifty is located on the floor below, and market’s itself as a different entity to Rockies upstairs, although I’m not sure if they’re individual businesses. They’re open at different times, so I’ll write about them differently. Bar 50 Fifty is the grown up version, that’s already established, but it’s the layout that amuses me. It’s set out like an actual ski lodge. The mock lodge comes complete with stone fireplaces and moose antlers and lots of wood panelling. There’s a choice of seating, wooden tables and chairs, bar stools, or big comfy leather seats. Depending on what night you go, you can catch the footy match on the big screen, or enjoy local live music. Hit the bar up on a weekend and there’s a house DJ playing popular music for you to bop along to. All in all a good place to end your ski day, or a place to just drive out to and enjoy the experience.
