We’ve named our happy hour after the warm, glistening sunlight that streams through our windows every afternoon. Join us for Golden Hour at Midnight Bar from 4-6pm, Monday – Sunday, to bask in the glow, with a drink in hand. We’ll save you a seat. Enjoy a glass of bubbles, white or red from local Canberra region winery, Lerida Estate ($10); a schooner of our ‘Braddon Ale’ collaboration beer with our neighbours at Bentspoke Brewing Co. ($8); or a bartender’s cocktail mixed-to-order ($12). To graze, we’ve got savoury plates of sliced salumi and pickles ($15) with your name on them.

We enjoyed our time at Midnight and loved the drinks and service. The cocktails were amazing, and the service was excellent. The only slight downfall is the bathrooms being a really long distance from the bar. Really enjoyable and good vegetarian options on the menu.

Went on a Friday evening and there was live music which was very loud, made it impossible to have a conversation. Service was good as were the drinks.

It was boiling hot and the bar was not cool at all, we had three tables that were not connected for a booking of 18 people and right near the live music which was very loud. A shadier and cooler spot would’ve been better, as well as some less loud music
