1. The Mansion
Situated on Wyndham Street in Central, The Mansion works as a hybrid entertainment venue, marrying events with cocktails and a menu inspired by pintxos – Basque tapas.
The space boasts retro cabaret aesthetics and an art gallery that transforms according to the event of moment. One of the main draws is an infinity ceiling decorated with LED lights that can feature electronic artwork. There are also resident and guest DJs, as well as choreographed performances.
