Why it's worth checking out
Blue Eyes sits on Garema Place in the heart of Canberra's Civic, in the central city precinct. A much-loved bar, it's earned an outstanding reputation — combining a great drinks offering with a stylish, characterful atmosphere, the kind of in-the-know spot that's become a genuine favourite for a quality drink and a sociable night out in the heart of the city.
The appeal is that combination of well-made drinks, a stylish, lively atmosphere and a central Civic location, ideal for a drink with friends, a date or a sociable evening. A bar that's nailed both its drinks and its vibe really stands out, and the outstanding feedback speaks to a spot that's genuinely delighting everyone who visits.
With a 4.8 rating from more than 230 reviews, it's clearly a much-loved spot. The drinks list, any food, opening hours and events vary, and a popular city bar gets busy on weekends, so it's worth checking current details before you go — though for a quality drink in a stylish setting, it's often just a matter of dropping in at Blue Eyes in Civic.
