A late, loud bar
Bunny Jackson's is a scruffy-on-purpose boozer with bands and live music running into the early hours seven days a week. It opens from midday on weekdays and 10am at weekends, and stays open until 3am, which makes it one of the more reliable late options in this part of the city. It is the kind of place where the night drifts from an afternoon pint into a gig and then into the small hours, so it suits groups more than a quiet drink. Check the venue's social channels for the week's line-up.
Food and drink
The kitchen keeps it simple: chicken wings, burgers, dirty fries and sides. Bottomless Bunny pairs wings with beer during the afternoon, from midday until 4pm, which is a popular way to start a group night. The bar operates a no-bookings policy, so arrive early on a Friday or Saturday.
Around First Street
