Book NowAbout Baptist Street Rec. Club
Retro swagger meets late-night Redfern energy at Baptist Street Rec. Club, where kitsch decor sets the stage for killer cocktails. Overhead, inverted trophies hang like stalagmites alongside vintage cult movie posters, establishing an unpretentious, high-spirited hangout built for casual dates and rowdy group catch-ups. Patrons drop in for cheeky throwback pours like White Russians alongside smart originals like the Breakfast Martini—spiked with dry gin, lemon, spiced pineapple marmalade, and toast. Bowls of house nuts scented with kaffir lime leaves land on the bar as a complimentary perk. Stay past midnight and the space flips seamlessly into an impromptu dance floor.
- Cult retro fitout: Trophies hang suspended from the ceiling alongside cult film posters, setting a playful retro mood.
- Throwback & craft cocktails: Signature pours span revived classics to inventive mixes like the Breakfast Martini with pineapple marmalade and toast.
- Kaffir lime bar nuts: Every drink arrives with complimentary bar nuts tossed with fragrant kaffir lime leaves.
- Late-night dance floor: Late-night drinkers stick around as the lounge floor clears for dancing.
