For a special occasion
If you’re looking to make a night of it, Cuba Street has options to spoil yourself. The chefs at Highwater are experts in pickling, smoking, curing and fermenting. The kitchen’s charcoal oven also ensures food is full of rich tastes. For bold flavour combinations in a distinguished setting, Logan Brown should be on your list. Since 1996, the chefs have concentrated on excellent technique and quality ingredients. The offering at Liberty is similar — international cuisines inspire the intriguing menu. Share plates add a level of informality to the fine-dining experience.
Rest your elbows on the bar
With so much foot traffic, Cuba Street has, of course, attracted a bevy of good bars. Heyday’s minty exterior makes it stand out. The brewery on-site makes it easy to supply the bar with the latest concoction. Out front, there are picnic tables, beanbags, and games. Down the road and below the ground, you’ll find Dee’s Place. This subterranean whiskey bar fills the needs of those in need of something strong. Among its huge collection, is one of the city’s biggest selections of American whiskeys.
