We sorta, kinda, maybe, possibly might have found the best possible date night idea. Guys you can high five us later, girls you’re welcome.
This hotspot is so hipster and on trend it even makes for the ideal location for a first tinder date. Located inside the prestigious new Marriott Hotel in Melrose Arch lies this ferociously fabulous bar. It is utterly stunning, all open and airy with ample amounts of space revealing the sunset and sipping with Jozi’s finest. The desire of this bar to showcase a seductive atmosphere and the experience is so breathtaking your better half will be so impressed with the beautiful display of bites to share style dishes and intoxicating cocktails.
The perfect order would be their steamed buns, falafel pita pockets and mezze platter to share with a side of a two Blackcurrant Sidecar cocktails- cognac, bourbon, Cointreau and zesty lemon juice. It just hits all the right spots.Although we didn’t try it, apparently their Jozi ice tea is also worth a shot but be brave it’s jam packed with tequila, white rum, vodka, gin lemonade and cranberry juice.

Impressively, the staff are super friendly too and exceed expectations, yes you will be offered a second cocktail before you even know you needed it.
Now HJ, we haven’t even gotten to the best part: there is live jazz night every Thursday and Friday night from 6pm, romantic acoustic sounds by Will Rayz. Hanging out in this summer filled space is sensible but they have the tunes to match. And it comes as no surprise, situated in such a prestigious hotel setting, they tick all the right boxes.
We believe date night is a top priority whether it’s your first or your 100th, basically it should always be our modus operandi.
Go in this one’s so worth it!
