Cool colonial space with party atmosphere

Word to the wise: Start your Friday night at La Fenetre Soleil's aperitif evening from 7pm. They'll even throw in a complimentary drink in the first hour to sweeten the deal.

Despite its daytime restaurant status, La Fenetre Soleil's eclectic colonial styling makes it an irresistible choice for early evening drinking. Deliberately random antique mirrors cover exposed brick walls while high ceilings drip with crystal chandeliers, providing a "window to the sun" for the city's young and style-conscious bohemian types.

Fuelled by a carefully constructed cocktail menu and a fine selection of premium spirits, the peppy crowd get animatedly acquainted as the night progresses, with the city's hippest DJs and bands providing the tunes. Themed evenings range from classy and sophisticated to just plain boisterous depending so it's best to be prepared for anything.
