Here's where you can get Espresso Martinis in Geelong
There's something so appealing about our daytime drink (you know, the caffeinated one) getting a nighttime makeover as a martini. We're not the only ones who love espresso martinis, and knowing where to get them is the next big challenge.
Below is a list of a few of the places you can enjoy the coffee-based cocktail!
Top Five - As voted by you!
After recently opening its doors, The 18th Amendment Bar is quickly on the rise as one of Geelong's premier cocktail destinations - hell, you voted it number one! While it makes cocktails much fancier than the humble espresso martini, you can still pick up a mighty fine one here.
Where: 82a Little Malop Street, Geelong
2. AMPED Bar
Also a new venue on the scene, AMPED Bar is as much about its live music as it is the vibe it creates. And luckily, you can pick up a few espresso martinis to help you create one!
Where: 71 Yarra St, Geelong
A classic just outside the CBD, The Elephant & Castle has been doing its thing (and doing it well) for some time now. So naturally it knows a thing or two about how to make a good espresso martini.
Where: 158 McKillop Street, Geelong
4. Lord Nelson
With one of the CBD's largest beer gardens, it should be mandatory to have an espresso martini in hand as you enjoy it. Things are also quite fancy on the inside, so get classy and sip your martini in style!
Where: Cnr of Malop and Bellerine St, Geelong
5. Mr. B Coffee
While Mr.B isn't actually a venue, this pop-up coffee cart (and bar) has become known around Geelong for dishing up some mighty fine espresso martinis. Having worked at weddings, in Country Road and for MECCA's launch in Westfield (amongst many others), if you see this cart be sure to grab a martini!
