Hidden rooftop cocktail bar on Level 4 of 199 Clarence Street, listed open until 02:00 from Tuesday to Sunday.
Old Mate's Place is a rooftop cocktail bar on Level 4 at 199 Clarence Street, in a former library. Time Out's October 2026 guide calls it a hidden rooftop with serious cocktails and lists it open until 02:00 from Tuesday to Sunday. An earlier listing gives Tuesday to Saturday from 17:00 and Sunday from 13:00, and notes that the bar won Time Out's Bar of the Year and Best New Bar awards in 2019.
It rates 2 out of 4 on Time Out's price scale. Not for you if you want a dance floor. This is a conversation bar, and it closes before the clubs get busy.
