| Birthday girls! B, Caz and I |
 |
| We've been friends for almost 15 years...hopefully we'll celebrate many more Birthday's together |
As you know it was my birthday waaaaay back on the 7
th
of February, but it wasn’t until Saturday night that I celebrated the occasion
alongside my fellow February birthday girl friends – one of whom is the
beautiful
B.
In previous years we’ve held parties at
AllOneWord and
Limes Bar but this year the call of Coconut and Lime Margaritas and Scorpion bowls of
Jamaican Divorce was too strong to resist and we headed to the White Lightening
Tiki Bar at
Alfred and Constance to celebrate turning another year older. What
a night it was.
I already feel like a regular at this joint despite it only
opening up in the silly season last year - I just can’t get enough of the place. I’m not
even kidding when I say that if I could move in, I would. Yes it is overpopulated with twenty-something
hipsters which can be annoying for the rest of us, but the beauty of A&C is
that you feel like you’re at the best house party you’ve ever been to.
Which isn’t really a surprise because it is essentially two
old Queenslanders' converted into what I like to imagine Heaven is like.
It’s kitschy and cute with its tiki-mugs and Hawaiian-shirt
clad staff but it also offers up delicious food, tasty tiki cocktails and an
eclectic mix of tunes including all those 90s classics that people love after
one or two cold bevvies… (‘Steal my sunshine’ by Len and ‘Jump’ by Kriss Kross
proved particularly popular on
Saturday).
All in all our whole party seemed to have a great night at
Alfred and Constance. We started early enough on the Tiki-deck to drink
Pina-Coladas as the sun set over Brisbane then we danced the night away in our
leis and shimmied out the door before the taxi queues becoming unbearable.
Although a fledgling on the scene, Alfred and Constance
really is one of Brisbane’s best bars if you’re looking for a super fun and
relaxed atmosphere – in my opinion two things that are key to having a great
night out. I'd highly recommend stopping by for a cheeky drink or a bite to eat if you're in the area...I guarantee you won't regret it!

I mean how can anyone have a bad night surrounded by their
friends with a Zombie in hand and a bartender wearing a sailor hat?
