The Baxter Inn

Most incredible bar ive ever been to. The drinks were delicious and made with such great detail and flare too. The space itself transports you back in time, paired with the music and lighting by candle light it could easily have been 1920. Highly recommend.

Always a great time. Best whiskey selection in Australia. Knowledgeable staff and a great vibe.

Been here several times and always enjoyed the experience. It’s a very cool bar that you wouldn’t find if you didn’t know about it.

After flying down to The big smoke for Anzac weekend we were armed with a list of groovy places to visit after heaps of research and some inside knowledge, Baxter inn was a top target on sunday evening and dressed for the occasion we were ready to rumble... after the mission of finding the venue we were greeted by a the most unfriendly gorilla at the entry door, whose first words were "what do you want"? After standing up from his stool,he says "sign in" whilst glaring at me trying to be intimidating... we both found it amusing as we were there for a fun time and he was obviously intimidated by my ruggedly handsome looks and far superior physique!! The bar was great and crew very professional, we only had a quick drink.and ventured onto other much more warm and welcoming places on the same street for the rest of night. Tip... take bananas to make friends with gorilla and he may even smile for you !!

Lovely venue, great staff, great selection. A must visit if you're a scotch lover.

Off the main street with a back alley entrance gives this an exclusive underground feel. Impressive whiskey collection coupled with a speakeasy ambience makes this a great spot for a drink.

Staff very knowledgeable about product. V,cosy atmosphere.

I know there’s no way a whisky can cost 4$. But on the 23rd of May night, I ordered the 4$ Japanese whiskey as shown on the board and got charged 34$. Otherwise the bar is near perfect

What can you say that hasn't already been said about the Baxter Inn? It's got an absolutely amazing whiskey selection, while very crowded and underground they do a good enough job preventing so many people from entering that it suffocates you. I'm sure the Barbershop (which was good in its own right) gets a ton of patrons that are looking for the Baxter Inn... it is not intuitive to hang a right, head toward the dumpsters and look for an unmarked door. However, there is a near constant line to point you in the right direction. You'll ask yourself "Can that line in the corner of the alley really be it?" Know, it is, and you won't regret standing in it.

Absolutely incredible establishment with the perfect bar tenders that are so knowledgeable! We love scotch and learned so much more from the outstanding service provided by Elliot and the other bar tender (sorry forgot his name but long hair and soo knowledgeable)! Massive selection, good pour and the coolest atmosphere which reminds me of a speak easy bar in California. They even have they even have their own Baxter Inn scotch which tasted great!
