The follow-up to Hannah Wagner’s popular Dark Red wine bar is located across Ann Street in Winn Lane. Slotted into the bottom of the heritage-listed Shannon’s Building, Wagner describes Dark Blue as having the feel of a New York loft, with the venue featuring high ceilings, and original timber and brick features.
A small bar sits at one end opposite a mix of high and low seating overlooking Winn Street. Above sits a vintage chandelier and a small mezzanine. Dark Blue leans a bit more towards cocktails than its sister venue, and for wines Wagner is focusing on drops from Spain, Chile and Argentina, with the initial list running to around 50 bottles.
There are also snacks such as tinned sardines and octopus, Superbon Madrid crisps, and deli boards you can compile yourself with items such as a terrine and a cherry duck pâté.The bar has just 30 seats, so get there early if you want to nab a spot.
