Better than Flowers and Chocolates: St-Germain and Champagne.
Coogee Bay Hotel has you covered for good times in February
Perfect plan for your weekend delivered every Thursday
It’s all about familiarity at the Crix. The rough-hewn wooden bar has supported a million schooners of Coopers Pale and a coveted seat in the indoor/outdoor courtyard comes at the cost of patience on those packed weekend nights. No frills, unpretentious and filled with local colour, the Cricketers is an institution with old school appeal. Bric-a-brac and general flotsam helps decorate interiors and upstairs is a warren of nooks for quieter moments. The gents' toilets throw up a masterpiece of layered graffiti and a lonely pool table is fun as both sport and drinking pew. Booze may be simple, but beer is a focus – the excellent White Rabbit dark ale joins a range of local premium beers on tap, while a snappy, cheap wine list does a good service for those looking for a decent tipple for the tarted-up pub grub on the updated dining menu at Bistro Morelli. While the younger, hip set tends to commandeer the pub, all and sundry are welcomed with open arms in the restaurant. Egalitarianism meets cool.
