Taxi Club

Chances are if you can't remember the end of last night, you probably finished it off at the Taxi Club. Refreshingly seedy after all these years, this place is a national treasure that no tourist brochure's going to tout, but that no tourist's visit should be without. Mind the stairs, which are breakneck-steep, even when you're sober.

Bring ID, because you'll have to present it at the door - this is a club of sorts, but all are welcome. Head on upstairs to the small but casual and comfy areas (which have too many pokies for our taste). At least happy hour sees cheap beer and spirits, and there's bingo on Monday nights. Taxi Club is popular with cross-dressers and gets most boisterous after midnight.
