Der Raum , Melbourne

For those of you with no grasp of the Germanic tongue, Der Raum means The Room (pretty phonetic really) though the place is smaller, cosier and infinitely hipper than your average Bavarian Beerhall. Indeed, cocktails are the thing here: innovative and generally top-notch, made with fresh fruit rather than cordials and syrups. Pop down on a Thursday when the bar-tenders get experimental and willing guineau pigs are required to sample their creations. Saturdays are also a good bet when guest DJs bring a bit of Latin atmosphere to the joint. Drinks here may cost a bit more than average but expertise is always worth paying for.

You have to take four escalators to get to Zeta in the Sydney Hilton but don't let that put you off. Enter the narrow dark opening across a white glass walkway and you find yourself in a chic, streamlined space that's suitable for a scene in a Bond film. Chic, black suited barmen stand behind the streamlined counters, while the room in front of them is furnished with lavish velvet armchairs, foot stools and drapes. Step past the curtains and a stunning outside terrace reveals a spectacular Sydney skyline. Order up a gin martini and you might very well begin to believe you're Bond, and this is your movie.
