I came to Farside one Saturday night in April with my older sister and my cousin who had just turned 18. My sister and I wanted to take our cousin somewhere nice and different for celebratory drinks. My sister suggested that we try Farside as she had been once before and had met the owner Eddy through friends.
Farside is a small bar located down Parnell Road between Renkon and Burgerfuel. If you are looking at a map, it is quite hard to spot and most of the time, you will walk straight past it!
We only went for drinks, but they were all delicious! Farside has an extensive cocktail list, which my cousin and I happily chose from! All the cocktails had cool names and interesting flavours, which is something you would not find in a bar/club in town! Overall, the best drinks we had were a Margarita with a salt rim and a Cosmopolitan with a sugar rim (see pictures) - both were yummy!
The décor was nice and the music interesting, which we all liked. Farside plays all sorts of music, so it is great for everybody! It had a cool vibe to it all night - we even had a boogie in the corner when Queen came on!
Farside also serves a range of bar snacks including cheese and cold meat platters with vegetarian options as well, which would be great to share with a group of friends - and a few of their amazing cocktails as well! read more
