live bands and poetry readings. There are just six bar stools, so patrons spill out into an
adjacent laneway. By day, it's a handy caffeine-refuelling spot.
Albar
BAR
(135 Stuart St; 11am-late)
This former butcher is now a bohemian little bar attracting
maybe the widest age range in Dunedin. Most punters are drawn by the many single-malt
whiskies, interesting tap beers and cheap-as-chips bar snacks ($6 to $9).
Di Lusso
COCKTAIL BAR
(
www.dilusso.co.nz
; 117 Stuart St; 4pm-3am Mon-Sat)
Upmarket and designery with wood
panelling, chandeliers and a backlit drinks display, Di Lusso serves seriously good cock-
tails. DJs play from Thursday to Saturday.
Carousel
COCKTAIL BAR
(
www.carouselbar.co.nz
;
upstairs 141 Stuart St; 5pm-late Tue-Sat)
Tartan wallpaper, a roof
deck and great cocktails leave the dressed-up clientele looking pleased to be seen some-
where so deadly cool. DJs spin deep house until late on the weekends, and there's live
jazz on Friday evenings.
Stuart St Mac's Brewbar
BAR
(
www.stuartst.co.nz
; 12 The Octagon; 10am-late)
Nelson's Mac's brewery is making a
strike deep into Speights' territory in the form of this funky bar right on the Octagon. It's
the sunniest spot for an afternoon drink, and after the sun sets there's often live music.
Speight's Ale House
PUB
(
www.thealehouse.co.nz
; 200 Rattray St; 11.30am-late)
Busy even in the nonuniversity
months, the Ale House is a favourite of strapping young lads in their cleanest dirty shirts.
It's a good spot to watch the rugby on TV and to try the full range of Speight's beers.
