  • 1. Bardeaux

    In winter, Bardeaux has that upscale mountain-après-ski atmosphere; even in summer there's a fair chance the fire will be roaring. There's a wide selection of whiskey and wine, and they know how to fix you up a cocktail. It's a pleasing bar that's good for a quiet, intimate evening.

  • 2. Minus 5° Ice Bar

    Ice bars have become popular over the past few years, and it's great fun if you've never tried one---even just for the beautiful ice sculptures. They deck you out in jackets and gloves prior to entering. In summer, it's a good reminder of how close to Antarctica you are, and, in winter, it just adds to the alpine resort experience. It costs NZ$30 to get in, $35 with a cocktail and $40 for two cocktails.

  • 3. Searle Lane

    With its roaring fire, good food, and quirky decor, Searle Lane is a popular Queenstown spot. There's plenty of beer on tap and a good selection of wine by the glass. They do a mean cocktail, too. The food is made for sharing with hearty choices; their specialty is rotisserie chicken, which is seriously good.

  • 4. Smiths Craft Beer House

    This bar offers the best range of New Zealand and international beer in town, including the stand-out local beer, Queenstown's own Altitude Brewing. There's a great pub food menu of burgers and sandwiches and a nice balcony from which to enjoy the hustle and bustle of Queenstown.

    53 Shotover St., Queenstown, Otago, 9300, New Zealand

  • 5. The World Bar

    This is a great place for drinks in the sun or inside by the huge open fire on colder days. Later in the evening, it turns into a rowdy venue, particularly on the weekend, with DJs playing most nights and live music Friday and Sunday, plus an acoustic open mic on Sunday nights. The famed cocktails are served in teapots, and you can get good gastro pub food throughout the day and early evening.
