Zephyr Bar Sydney

Zephyr Bar is on the twelfth floor of 161 Sussex Street. It is a fifteen-minute walk from the Queen Victoria Building.

Most nightlife in this part of Sydney follows the standard pub formula, but Zephyr Bar leans into a rotation of house and hip-hop that sets it apart from the surrounding cocktail dens. While the room runs smart and elegant, the experience is dictated by its height above the street rather than the usual ground-level bustle. It is a better choice than the cramped bars closer to The Rocks if you prefer a club-style environment with enough vertical distance from the pavement to feel detached from the street.
