About
Eau-De-Vie Sydney is an intimate, dimly lit, jazz infused speakeasy created for the discerning bon vivant. Let our amicable hosts and expert team of bartenders transport you back to a much forgotten era where great service, cocktails, tommy guns and good times were king. Eau-De-Vie is a French expression that translates to “water of life.” Spirits such as French brandy (eau-de-vie), whisk(e)y, vodka and aquavit from Norway, all take their names from the alchemic notion that spirits were an elixir of life.
Like it’s Darlinghurst original, the enormous back bar takes centerstage at Eau-de-Vie where bartenders shake, stir, flame and throw iconic Eau-de-Vie creations like the Smokey Rob Roy, Espresso Zabione and Yuzu Mule along with an extensive list of new libations.
The Whisky Room owes its name to our large collection of rare and exclusive whiskies that live here. It is also home to our Bottle Lockers, where you can purchase your favourite spirit bottle from Eau-de- Vie and store it for your next visit.
The Whisky Room can be transformed into a private space and is the perfect place for private events for groups of 15 – 40 guests. It is also – when not booked – the ideal place to enjoy one of our whiskies.
If you’re looking for an out-of-the-ordinary night out, this is it. Eau de Vie isn’t just about the excellent, razzle-dazzle cocktails, or the glam secret setting, or the delicious snacks – it’s a whole multi sensory experience.
