The Shirt Bar is perhaps the only men's clothing store in the world where drinking is encouraged. The Sydney-based retailer of luxury and bespoke men's shirts also has a bar that serves a variety of liquors, cocktails and coffees.
Whiskey lovers will love Shirt Bar's selection of 17 whiskeys (12 of which are single-malts). French champagne is also served to curious customers shopping around. For non-drinkers, Shirt Bar serves up its own brand of coffee called FAT. The store is split into two sides with the shirts on one side and the bar on the other. Shirt Bar's combination of an original idea and a classy execution make this a definite must-see next time you're in Sydney. I'd start saving now. Those shirts and single-malt whiskeys can't be cheap.
