Pan fried potatoes, brushetta, beef sliders, haloumi skewers, tapas, churros and more, i love this place.
The food tastes great, its a comfy bar with a nice atmosphere, laid back and relaxed. The service is good, the prices are great and it is a favorite of mine.

The Different Drummer is a cozy place for a cocktail. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable and the atmosphere conducive to civilized supping.

Happy hour is a real winner here (especially as it lasts for an hour and a half!) and the nibbles on offer are also good.

My wife and I decided to walk into the Different Drummer not knowing about the venue or its food. We were attracted by the look and feel. Once inside, we were not disappointed.The staff were really friendly, helpful, happy to walk us through the menu and make great suggestions on what to eat. There is plenty of room, and an upstairs area that is less noisy if you want to have a good conversation. The food was excellent, nice portions, and a competitively priced wine list to choose from.The portions are quite big so start with a few shared plates and if you are still hungry keep ordering. It is also priced very competitively, so you can adequately eat and drink between two people and have change from $100 to get a cab home.

Approximate cost: $100

Sounds like an exciting and lively restaurant!

Love this place. Go for happy hour for 2-for-1 cocktails, they're delicious and have some yum variations on good themes as well as the classics. Lots of different spaces, I like the outside area out the back the best, great for catching up with friends after work or uni. The tapas is yum too, a bit on the pricey side though - I prefer to come just for happy hour cocktails :) Trivia on a Monday night is good here too.

Approximate cost: $15 for 2 cocktails at happy hour

We love to go to The Different Drummer for a few cocktails. The two-for-one happy hour is great! I love the music they play and the atmosphere is wonderful, lively, and fun. A great place to hang out after work or before heading out for a big night.

The quality of their cocktails are second to none don't get me wrong but prices are above average. Try and go during happy hour- it's the perfect combination of value for money, great ambience and great cocktails!

Approximate cost: $20

For good value and quick service, plus super fabulous cocktails that are 2 for 1 in happy hour, Different Drummer is ideal. I love the atmosphere, the location, the range of tapas, and did I mention Happy Hour??

Approximate cost: $25

Really lovely bar with pretty good service and great drinks. It really is about the atmosphere though! Fantastic.

Drinks are superb, and awesome atmosphere, great decor. Great to book an area for a function, especially cos it does get pretty packed. Food is nice but not the best value for money.

Great place for cocktails they have happy hour 2 for 1 cocktails, the drinks are very nice as well. They have tapas as well but not a huge selection and, not very many vegetarian options.
