All the reviews are on track. Cheap drinks swapped out for a stench which hurts the eyes, my eyes are burning. Clientele seems to revolve around having a quick drink before before heading out to a venue with more expensive drinks. Or having a slap - which means playing the pokies.

I wouldn't hang here very long, like sipping on a martini or anything. Just have a drink get the job done, save a pretty penny and head home or hit the club for triple priced drinks and deep queues.

P.S. Stock up responsibly

Approximate cost: $8.50

well the only reason why I would wanna go to this bar is if I am broke and need a really cheap drink (you might find some around three dollars). No other reason that I can see. Floor always sticky and very packed

In a land where everything is super-expensive, it's a breath of fresh air to find someplace like Bar Century. Approximately a 5 minute walk from Town Hall Station, Bar Century is the place you should hit up before you start your night.

$3 drinks all day, every day. Beer, wine, spirits - dare you to find a place that's as cheap. You ask for a drink and they make it right then and there. I have not have to wait longer than a minute for whatever drinks I ordered, which I loved.

However, Bar Century's atmosphere gives off a pretty seedy vibe. The music is trashy top-40, there are virtually no tables to sit at and is crowded at every point of the day. Their bathrooms leave a fair bit to be desired as well. The one thing I hated was their stairway up to the bar - it was so steep and the stairs were so small, I was surprised not to have seen more drunk girls stumble down them.

Bar Century is one of those places you hit up for a quick buzz before running off to a concert or club. It's a decision one has to make though - would you rather a fancier establishment with more expensive drinks, or $3 house spirits and no finesse?

Cocktails elsewhere in the city can be close to $20, and you'll have to forego your mortgage payments if you want to get liquored up on those. Given the opportunity, I'd probably spring for Bar Century. But the choice is always yours.
