Fairyfloss Martinis are the norm at this Surry Hills bar

Wander in to one of Surry Hills' prettiest bars this weekend for insta-worthy cocktails, live music and great vibes.

Surry Hills is a buzzing inner city suburb with an eclectic mix of bars and restaurants. Tucked away in its labyrinthine streets are a plethora of hidden gems, and boutique bar, Li'l Darlin, is one of them. Wandering inside, you will feel as though you have stumbled upon an enchanted forest of sorts. An archway of vines, fairylights, and blush roses welcome you in, winding their way up to the ceiling to create an enclave of greenery. Soft mood lighting, dark wooden tables and the soft strumming of guitar from a live performer in the centre of the space, add to the enchanted feel of this stunning venue.

Just a short walk from Central station, Li'l Darlin is a lively and popular spot among after-work punters. Pop in between 5pm and 7pm for Happy Hour - think $10 cocktails from the bar's 'Urban Legends' list and $5 house wine, spirits and beer. Whether it's a 'White Choc Passionfruit Martini' or a 'Gummy Beartini' which tickles your fancy, there is something to satisfy every sweet tooth out there.

Feeling peckish? Li'l Darlin also serves up an impressive selection of tasty pizzas which are the perfect size for an individual serving. Whether you're after a classic margarita, or something a little more adventurous - Truffle Asparagus pizza, anyone? - Li'l Darlin has got you covered. If you're with a group and sharing's more your style, then the nacho share boards are the way to go.

While the food is delicious, Li'l Darlin's eye-catching cocktails are the true stars of the show. You will want to come back again and again just to try them all! Featuring all of your childhood favourites - think sour straps, fairy floss, hundreds & thousands and gummy bears - these cocktails are as fun as they are moreish. The 'Over the Rainbow', which incorporates Havana white rum infused with sour straps and strawberry and bubblegum liqueur is a true crowd-pleaser. If you're looking for something a li'l more refreshing, then the 'Vera Green' featuring Dry London Gin, muddled cucumber, lemon peel aperitif and aloe vera juice, may be more to your liking. If it's the sweetest of the sweet that you're craving, then the 'Fairy Floss Martini' with Swedish Vodka, raspberry sorbet, cane sugar and fairy floss rose will be calling your name. Whatever you're after, there is sure to be something you'll love at Li'l Darlin.

So grab some pals and head in this weekend to see what all the fuss about - your Insta feed will thank you as well!
