What to do and see in Northern Territory, Australia: The Best Bars & Clubs

January 19, 2022 Rebbecca Marino

The Northern Territory (abbreviated as NT) is a federal Australian territory in the central and central northern regions of Australia. It shares borders with Western Australia to the west (129th meridian east), South Australia to the south (26th parallel south), and Queensland to the east (138th meridian east). To the north, the territory is bordered by the Timor Sea, the Arafura Sea and the Gulf of Carpentaria. Despite its large area—over 1,349,129 square kilometres (520,902 sq mi), making it the third largest Australian federal division—it is sparsely populated. The Northern Territory's population of 244,000 (2016) makes it the least populous of Australia's eight major states and territories, having fewer than half as many people as Tasmania.

Daly Waters Pub

Reviewed By MargotN62 - Northern Territory, Australia

We stopped in for a drink on our way from Darwin to Alice Springs and decided we would change our return itinerary slightly so we could come back for Beef n Barra and the live music. We had the best night. The food was great and the music entertaining and fun. Some of the 'decorations' may not be to everyone's taste, but you don't have to look at it. Grab a drink and sit outside in the outdoor area and enjoy being in an iconic, historic Australian pub.

The Trader Bar

There’s a secret in Darwin, a sanctuary hidden away in the cool with a library of gins and boutique spirits. You only need to follow the trail; under an archway of vines, past the ancient blooming orchid and across our wide green garden lays a steel door, the gate which keeps wines from across the world safe for your lips. Come for the Drinks, the Music or the Espresso – your friends are waiting! Drinks. Coffee. Friends. Music.
