Good vibes and delicious drinks await
There’s no denying the Shire has blessed us with countless choices for a cheeky cocktail or two. Be it a fun night in Cronulla or a casual Sunday session, there’s something for everyone! To ensure you’re getting the most bang for your buck, we’ve done the hard yards and rounded up the Shire’s best happy hours! From $10 margarita’s to 49% off cocktails, which venue will you be ticking off first? Happy sipping…
FIOR
Fior, the latest dining gem in Gymea, masterfully blends a fresh take on Italian cuisine with warm Aussie charm, offering expertly crafted cocktails, rustic dishes, and the chicest interiors. But that's not all—they also host an unmissable Aperitivo hour, featuring $2 Sydney rock oysters, $12 Fior Spritz, $8 Gin & Tonics, $7 House Bianco & House Rosso and $7 Pale Ale from Monday to Thursday, 5:00pm to 6:00pm and Friday to Sunday, 4:00pm to 5:00pm
Roccos
Raise a glass to the weekend at the Shire’s hottest new bar, Roccos. Only known by those in the know, Aperitivo hour kicks off here every Friday and Saturday evening from 5:00pm to 7:00pm with refreshing $12 Spritzes, $7 Morettis, and our favourite kind of bar snacks – we’re talking $2 Oysters and $5 Woodfired Bread. This isn’t just any Woodfired Bread – it’s airy, puffy, and seriously delicious. Think of it as the Shire’s take on the Totti’s special.
Scout tip: Stick around till late, because from 8:00pm, a DJ turns up the energy.
