Bar Rochford
Canberra, Australia
The cornerstone of Canberra City’s iconic Melbourne Building (designed in the 1920s by Sir John Sulman), Bar Rochford is a lighthearted little wine and cocktail bar where the owners’ love for vintage vinyl keeps toes tapping from early evening until “late”. Dignified green leather booths bring a stately feel to the industrial-chic space, where exposed concrete beams and weathered floors remind of the building’s history. The liberal wine list matches the same frequency of the room – eclectic bottlings featuring both obvious varietals and under-the-radar ones from around the world are offered by the glass and bottle, bolstered by a pleasing number of fortified wines, amari and aperitivo, which often play a role in the delicious house cocktails. Fresh, seasonal snacks and large plates bring fine-dining quality to the low-key environs.
