Box Hill bar and bottle shop Bar Nearby leans into the welcoming British pub culture of co-owner James Bishop’s native Worcestershire. One beer tap will always pour the crowd-pleasing Carlton Draught; the rest will oscillate between local brewers such as Hargreaves Hill. And you can just as easily get a $13 glass of local wine as a Coravin pour of premier cru chablis.

If dinner’s on the cards, you can BYO or order takeaway from a local restaurant.
