( 07-3369 1299; www.thelark.com.au ; 1/267 Given Tce; 4pm-midnight Mon & Wed-Fri, 1pm-midnight Sat,
1-10pm Sun) Inside an intimate, two-level brick terrace, Lark serves up artful drinks and in-
ventive fusion fare. Tapas share plates ($11 to $28) involve hits like wagyu sliders and
parmesan-crusted mushrooms, washed down with international wines, crafty beers and
cocktails (go for the Cherry Bourbon Smash). What a lark!
Dowse Bar

( www.facebook.com/dowsebar ; cnr Given Tce & Dowse St, Paddington; 4pm-late Thu-Sun) Tucked under-
neath the bigger, flashier Iceworks bar, Dowse Bar is an intimate, retro-quirky booze room
that brings a bit of bearded student/hipster vibe to Paddington. Live acoustic acts croon to
the crowd, who sit on old couches amongst wacky lamps and murals.

of Pimms and an open-sided interior that packs crowds on weekends - particularly during

stairs is more subdued and arty.
